TVR Griffith beim Oldtimer Grand Prix

Sean McInerney (UK) im TVR Griffith beim Gentlemen Drivers Rennen auf dem Nürburgring im Programm des 41. AvD Oldtrimer GP. Im Qualifying auf Position 2 gefahren wurde er - warum auch immer - zum Start aus der Boxengasse verdonnert. Gut für uns, denn der TVR Griffith mit dem V8 aus dem Ford Mustang geht ordentlich vorwärts und zum Rennende stand Sean auf dem Podium auf Position 2. Das Video zeigt die ersten sechs Rennrunden onboard.

So well driven - and love the way it just decimated the lightweight E Type and Porsche's...

[@Encom0]

What a quick little Mother of a car - absolutely brilliant!!!

[@aureliobrighton1871]

I haven't realized there was a Group C Griffith, obviously the only in the field 😉 Thankyou

[@maxmansell9523]

[@grahamw56]

Fabulous machine. Great driving. Fantastic quality video. Many thanks for sharing. I only have the Xbox Forza4 now. lol

[@esper1965]

Well driven!!!!

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

Touching 1.2G in the corners is pretty impressive for an old timer like that. :)

[@ChristianMarx]

Well driven. Impressive torque and power.
Would like to have that in my car.

at the start, when he is colliding with the E-Type, the light on left side was damaged, this ring was a part of the light.

Rode in one , absolutely the fastest car I'd ever been in...289 hi po and Ford Toploader gearbox...the car had a Corvette center section for rear gear posi, and the owner had removed the blower because it terrified him

[@shauntvr]

Very nice car and well driven

[@georgec2126]

Klasse!
So ist meine Großmutter in den Sechzigern gefahren! 😁 Sie ließ niemanden überholen...😯

[@MakeCoffeeLikeABawws]

FYI Lost a headlight ring at 6:25 touching the apex

[@claylittlewood540]

Came up through the ranks handily ..

[@milkolippe7473]

Insane.. And super well driven. I wonder if my 3000M would even come close when it comes to handling.

[@BoostedM20]

Is that in MPH's?

[@markmark5269]

I love that you could replicate that car for as little as under $20K and yet it's beating cars valued in hundreds of thousands, even millions!

[@brianellory28]

Would that you could , this car would be £180k plus .

[@thestumaji656]

is that one of the 10 Griffiths actually raced by TVR in the European circuit? there were 6 left hand drive and 4 right I know where 6 is I rebuilt it.

[@limjamrace]

Crikey ,were all the others just having a cruise around..

[@ianedmonds9191]

What was the car he never caught?
That was totally riveting.
Luv and Peace.

[@timekeeper6968]

E-Type

[@ianedmonds9191]

This is just silly if it was a classic race.
I take it this was just a classic track day?
Crazy amount of cars passed and some of them very surprising...

[@daugbret]

Was that a hubcap that flew across the screen?

[@markusflamm3622]

Der orange 911 er liegt wie ein Schluck Wasser in einer Steilwandkurve. Weissach bad engeneriing

[@MaximumAttack575]

Looks like it handles really well (well built by Nigel Reuben and well Driven by Sean M).

[@alancollard8939]

this must be free practice as there are too many idiots out there ,is the bonnet/hood just one huge foam air filter , and how do you keep it cool

[@redbaronlux]

You agud driver

[@cymoncyrado2879]

Having a part in restoring a Griffith I can say that having balls on a track is easy when your car has a much more easily replaceable engine and less rarity that some of those cars on the track. I would have yielded to such an overly aggressive driver if I was in one of the other classics that were vastly more valuable.

[@skunch]

not even 30 seconds in he punts the back of another driver! Rubbin is racin!

[@mariusz76a]

[@cossieboa5717]
