Any idea's what will be causing my brake lights to come on when on full throttle would be very much appeciated. They also flash on at about half throttle then go out and then stay on when you have your foot planted.

Not sure if people following end up braking or if she really does leave stuff behind that quicklybiggrin

checked the switch on the pedal? Could have moved or have broken. The thread that holds it in place can snap.

A dodgy light switch that probably needs adjusting/changing that's being affected by the G forces of the full bore Cerbness I reckon yes

This is the frame twisting when you press the throttle hard. Loads of TVR's do it.
Watch a dyno run and you'll see the brake lights come on.
Under hung pedals only, not the floor mounted ones from the Tcars

So it is a saftey feature then making those behind brake in case the Cerb decides to swap end all of a sudden.

Good thinking TVR.
