IV GOT MY 1st TAMORA

[bobdylan]

PICKED IT UP TODAY ooooooooooooow WOW shes perfect, had a 200 mile trip home in her, at first was like driving a spaceship but after ten minutes she felt like home
iv just one question; taking her up to 4000rpm and letting her fall back down to 3000rpm just to hear her crackel and pop.... well does that ever ware off ? because i keep giggeling silly

[bobdylan]

lol the first car iv ever bought and the first RWD car iv really driven SO i go for a tamora, MINT!
another slight concern is, iv had it a day and im craving more power already is this a illness that we pistonheads shall never be cured ?

[t40ora]

Enjoy mate. Yeah, I back off to hear the pops and crackles too - just can't resisit. Sometimes when it's in the garage after just getting home from a run. Sad old git.... And that's with a standard exhaust.

As for the more power, I'm on my first TVR too and it does get a bit addictive. But how far round the rev range have you been? Until you've really floored it in 2nd and hit 6000 revs plus you've not tested it out. BUT NOT IN THESE CONDITIONS!

Welcome to the fold.

sun shine broke out on way back home (instant top down) cold dont bother me i laught out loud like a mad man
hit that 6000rpm , 4th up from 4500rpm just sounds ...... well gosh words cant say. its got sports exhaust fitted

[zooooom]

NO once you got the TVR bug theres NOOO getting rid off it.
In the future consider fitting a pair of TVR power super sports exhaust they are fantastic, even if a little .
You think you've got a big grin now, if you fit them your need a cheek transplant.

Conga-rats Amazing pops and crackles, i'm the same always have the window down and back off the gas, my passenger always things i'm a bit of a strange driver though .....

Nice one

The need to make it pop hasn't worn off after three years. Sorry, it might be terminal.

[ladytamora]

congratulations! welcome to the club. Had mine for couple months and still cant stop smiling. Now I have to try to find the pops and bangs hee hee.

[T-Burn]

Haven't had mine for long, but don't think I'll EVER get bored of the pops and bangs

[maddog-uk]

Welcome to the fold! We want more owners on www.tvrtamora.com so please join if you have not already!

Definately go carefully in these conditions. Its my mission to pull together a meet in 2007 but I am wondering what the main celebrations will be for the 60th.

cheers

Pop her in 4th before selecting reverse.

Wouldn't you be going at about 150mph to need to change up from 5th?
