Hi there

I'm driving a '97 with now 80'000km. At 50'000 I changed the cluth for the fist time. Now with 80'000km the clutch is beginning to slip again.

Is this normal? Are there some race-clutches available?

Unfortunately there is no special TVR-Know How in Switzerland so I hope you can help me.

Greetings
Tom

Rang round many - when planning ahead for the inevitable clutch change seem reasonably price compared to others and great if you want real power from a 500.

Clutch wear seems excessive? Do you rest your left foot on the clutch pedal all the time?
