Good to see the top 7 cars covered by a second, can the LNT TVR challenge the Porsches and Ferrari's in qualifying? I hope so!

Great job by the LNT TVR. Good to see 3 differnt cars up there at the front, bit of a shame nobody managed to split the Scuderia Ecosse Ferrari 360's though. Should be a great couple of races tommorow, a Scuderia Ecosse win for sure providing there are no mistakes, but could the LNT TVR get 2nd in one of the races? Or even the Embassy porsche?

Race 1 is now over and its a win for Embassy Racing, fantastic as people may know they are my local team as they are based only a mile up the road from where I live. So well done to Jonathan France and the team, 2nd was the Scuderia Ecosse Ferrari of Nathan Kinch and Andrew Kirkaldy and 3rd was the other Scuderia Ecosse Ferrari of Tim Mullen and Chris Niarchos. But well done again to Embassy Racing.

Indeed, great result for Embassy. Nice to see another race winner, shame about the LNT TVR's though. Oh well, always race 2. Full results of race one can be found here.

I am sure it's been talked about before, but why is there only LNT TVR now? It was the same last week at Silverstone.
I thought the team was well financed? |

I think you find nordic, that there is a technical problem with the other TVR.
And yes there are well financed, lawerence tomlinson is a Multi-millionaire. |

Whats up with the LNT cars? both retired from this race within a couple of laps of each other before half distance, looks like has been hard weekend for the team.
Scuderia Ecosse are looking better every time. |

Guess it puts pay to the earlier questions of why aren't there 2 TVR's anymore - Hughes and Pearce were in the 2nd one but it retired 8 laps before the Thompson/Kane car

At least one, if not both, of the LNT TVRs had engine problems. I'll try to find out from Andrew T if I can. Hopefully they'll have it all ironed out by next weekend.
