2 x TVR T400R (Tuscan R) Race Cars in Action: Sound, Accelerations & Fly Bys!

The T400R (or Tuscan R) is for sure one of the many race cars from the past that I'd never imagined to record. But instead here I am sharing this video with you not about just one of these TVR but two of them (in total only seven T400Rs have ever been built). Thanks to the recent creation of those few historic championships in which old GT1, GT2 and LMP cars can again race or simply stretch their legs, many of these rare pearls are coming out of their hibernation.

The T400R was introduced in 2001 and entered in the GT class of the British GT Championship. This was used as the launchpad for TVR's project to became more popular around the globe and the Le Mans 24 Hours as a prime objective. The car was born from the success and experience derived from the Tuscan Challenge, a British TVR one-make series inaugurated in 1989. After a first ever international race start with a popular and successful run in the 2002 Suzuka 1000kms, producing a class podium, the big international step was made in 2003 when a DeWalt-livered T400R managed to obtain a 6th place in class of the Sebring 12h. Two DeWalt T400Rs took part at the 24h Le Mans race of the same year but they didn't managed to finish the race. TVR T400Rs were fielded in the N-GT class, renamed GT2 from 2005, of both British GT and FIA GT championships until 2006.

The car is powered by a 4.0-litre N/A straight-6 engine that was able to produce around 400 hp and 420 Nm of torque and a weight of 1100 kg. Watch them in action mainly around Monza Circuit and briefly at Circuit Paul Ricard during the 2019 and 2020 editions of Monza Historic by Peter Auto and during the 2019 Dix Mille Tours, fielded in the Endurance Racing Legends championship by TVR's specialists Str8six.co.uk!
