Dear all:

Greetings and Happy New Years to my fellow TVR-ites!  

Just to start the new year off on a happy note, I was talking with another
TVR colleague, over the holidays, about the complete absence of protection
from side, front, or rear impact in the TVR.  He reminded me of the total
absence of protection of interior occupants from a puncture of the gas tank
due to a forceful rearend collision.  I felt real good about that, after we
were done talking.  Not that I'm looking for trouble, but...  Has anyone
put a fuel cell in their TVR, as some type of effort to minimize the danger
of being burned to a crisp in the event of a rear end crash?  Cost?  Volume
of the tank?  On that happy note, I'll say...

Cheers,
Will Zehring

p.s. another question: I haven't received a copy of TVRCCNA 'TVR Times' in
many months.  I sent my (late $30) check in to Marq, but it appears as if
I've been mustered out of the club.  Any clues?
