In a similar vein to my winged F3L livery, I have had this car on my hard drive for ages but avoided it because I could not stand the lack of a real livery. So, here's a real livery from the 2002 British GT. I think its the first real one for this car.

I do not know if I can tell you where to find the car on here, but I will say that there is a creator with a more realistic rework of the car's power on their Patreon with a name that sounds like "GT's and cream". Without that or another nerf down closer to the 600hp range, the mod will blow all its contemporaries out of the water on track.

This is such a cool but forgotten little oddball. TVR developed it in the late 1990s with the intent to compete in FIA GT and at Le Mans, but they saw the writing on the wall with the "GT1-in-name-only" monsters taking over and snatching outright wins from even the prototypes, and tabled the project. They set their sights on the less extreme and more local British GT championship. TVR ran the Cerbera Speed 12 from 2000 to 2002 and were fairly successful.

It had a 7.7L V12 made by combining two inline-6 engines. Horsepower was limited to 675hp in the race car, but the unrestricted road-going engine had between 800-960hp, depending on who you ask. The idea of giving that much rear-wheel power with no driver assists to customers freaked out TVR, so they cancelled the project and refunded the customers' deposits. Chickens.

I did the 2002 British GT #27 car because it fits the specific 3D model (which is closest to how the car raced in 2001-02), and it is the livery with the most photos available on the internet, even if some of those photos are distinctly 2002 levels of resolution. The sponsor positioning changed from race to race during the 2002 season, so this livery is based on the Silverstone race but may differ a little here and there. Personal note: forensic logo reconstruction is a time-consuming task.

Definitely a great skin, the color and its logos make a great combination. I'm also working on some skins for this car (but I'm going very slowly), I hope to contribute as soon as possible too. Thank you very much for recreating this skin of a forgotten legend.
