No Rev counter on start-up
Discussion
Would have thought this is right down Steve Heath's street!
No! It doesn't sound normal. Normally (as in, I can only assume it's the same on the TVR - but don't quote me!!!) the rev counter should take a signal from the ignition system, so could be something like a loose connection.
I'm sure someone in the know will put me straight.

No it isn't. I am having enough problems as it is....
Could be an intermittent connection or a fault in the rev counter. Might be worth chceking wires and connections but I would leave well alone as repairing a rev counter is expensive especially if the counter works perfectly after the first 5 seconds.
It's not really broke so don't fix it.

Many moons ago I had a car that had a similar problem. It used to stick in the rest position when you started up until it leapt off the rest and then worked properly. I took it to bits and found it was touching behind the face of the dial. After a small amount of bending of bits it was perfect.
