As others have pointed out, the carbureted version of the TR6 that North America received resulted in significantly less horsepower, with a 0-60 time somewhere in the double digits. But driving one of these cars with the top down - the wind in your hair and the exhaust note ringing in your ears, such things didn’t matter all that much as the overall experience was still so visceral and fun.
I used to wear them when driving mine. Mind you, it was in a prodsports class race, and my hands used to get quite sweaty, can't think why! enormous fun, but i never had any money while doing it, no sponsors involved and we'd chew thru a set of road tyres in a year.
I thought the reason that they started wrapping steering wheels in leather was to eliminate the need to wear gloves (sweaty hands and polished wooden steering wheel rims were not a particularly good combination).
Super polished video! Wonderful Job. 👍🏻. Love these little old British roadsters. They all seem so tactile and full of spirit. Would love to see a longer drive video in this.
Nice car, nice sound, nice editing, love the red gloves
Amazing Video Quality!!! You should have so much more followers!

Now I just need a 40 minute version!
As a Tr-250 owner, looking good...diggin the exhaust
Love this car!
Beautiful!
👏👏👏
This video has a US spec car with Stromberg carbs so 104-106 bhp NOT the 150-125 bhp of the Petrol Injected cars quoted in the video
Good video! Nice job👌
Lovely car but unfortunately the North America Market didn't receive the 150bhp Pi version. That was reserved for the UK and Europe cars.
Yeah thank God - the PI versions were problematic - carbs - No so much !
Used to get my fuel injected set up at TRGB in Cambridge, when i got back to Devon it needed re setting 😕
Don't feel too bad this video has a US spec car with Stromberg carbs so 104-106 bhp not the 150-125 bhp of the Petrol Injected cars
Le mec il conduit comme un pied il ne sait pa rouler point barre
A dream car. Please do all the British sports cars, MGB, MGA, Triumph GT6, MGB GT etc.
Gotta......wear........the........gloves.😂
