BritGT - LNT TVR Engines
Anyone here have any inside info on whether LNT are likely to have two working engines for Thruxton this weekend? Autosport yesterday seemed to suggest that it would be touch and go.

Without a doubt they will have engines.
Like it says in autosport, if worst comes to worst they'll just use the developmental engines. But i highly doubt they'll miss this round, LNT have the money to purchase a new engine if need be! What it was thoe is some new parts they were trying, failed, so it's not going to be a regular occurance. |

It was a component problem, same thing happened to more than one engine - batch fault suspected.

LNT and the TVR factory are working together very very closely. So I'd be very very surprised if LNT ran out of engines

Their difficulties at Knockhill (just one spare) were as much to do ith the ludicrously crowded calendar as anything else

Just listening to qualifying on Embassy Race Radio, it sounds like LNT don't have any spare engines this weekend.
