Well, I had an advantage.....i've been there! :wink:

BTW, Jeff Lane is straight up one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, and a real carnut!

I highly recommend to anyone to go visit the Lane Motor Museum, it's a fun and wonderful place!

 

Holy carp that thing is cool...however I don't think I would fit...

 

Absolutely classic Top Gear... LMAO! :lol:

 

You guys should head to the Lane Motor Museum. They have one of those & the sports model. The Trident! Along with all kinds of other wonderful oddities.

 

^^^Where's that located?

 

Knoxville Tennessee

 

Cool thanks. We're planning a trip back there in the Fall. I'll hav'ta work it into our plans.

 

Hey Chuck you wanna race my Reliant Robin? :wink:

Actually, the Lane Museum is in Nashville, Tenn - not Knoxville.

I did The Rally for the Lane last Sept - I got to drive a '58 Tatra 603 on the over 100 mile rally thru the Tenn backroads, down to the Jack Daniels distillery and back. Really a fun event, I recommend it highly!

Each year on 2 different weekends they take 20 cars out of the museum and let people drive them on a rally! Can you imagine? You do have to donate for the priveledge, but in my case I got to drive a car I never would have (and probably never will again) on a long beautiful trip thru the countryside.

They have a video of Jeff Lane driving the Peel Trident up and down the main road in front of the museum on their website - it went better than the Peel 50 does!

Thanks for the real location Dave. There is a reason I was not a rally navigator & I let Babs read the maps while in motion. :crazy:

 

I've been there too. Just forgot where the heck it was....
