they must be slow

On a more serious note, as I have said above the Cerbera seems very very quick. From experience my mate hardly got a chance to put his foot down and the Cerbera was lost in the distance. Pitty they arent as reliable

What a feckin joker.....The TVR was probably running on 3 cyls due to an electrical problem! Any dick head in a 350 or Tamora would have handed you your ****!! You just assumed he was "racing" When in reality he was enjoying a quiet drive with the cd player at full chat.

Sounds very unlikely to me.... How can you say dont under estimate a lightweight scoob????? the TVR weigh's 1100kg?? less transmission losses etc etc.

When i had the tuscan it would slaughter most scoobs in a straight line with out a doubt.....

Im selling my 02 TSL333bhp scooby for a TVR 350c. Ive looked at the figures and it would take one hell of a scooby to do 0-60 in 3.8s and 0-100mph in 10's (im not saying there arnt any) but im sure your scoob wont do it. You would need a Type 25 for sure!!
So im afraid it was 0-1 to the TVR driver when he thought "whats that d*ck in the Impreza with the lightweight gold wheels doing over there?"

Btw sorry for my ignorance but what is the difference between the 350 and Sagaris? Does the Sagaris justh ave a few extra bits like a rear spoiler and bigger wheels or are they totally different cars?

cheers
