Austec racing can do this... I havn't (knowingly) had it done but they know their TVR's and its where I would take mine for a geo check... I've spent plenty there and they have done what they said they would...

Mine's in there for a MOT currently so I might edit this post with biblical terms soon smile

In Redhill there is a place opposite the Ford garage that I had do my Vrs - they have the toys and data, but don't know the cars so well...but very nice people.

I know Austecs quite well and I was horrified by my experience earlier this year price wise!

I'll look up the Redhill one thanks, nit far from me.

Merit tyres in Leatherhead.
They have a full computer geo thing. And you get a nice print out with pictures :-)

No, I will check them out.

My concerns with none TVR/performance car places are, have they the equipment to sort out rear toe, camber and caster as well as the all important tracking and 4 wheel alignment?

If you came up to the wilds of West Norfolk, the night before the Snetterton TD in three weeks time, Mat Smith could do it for you. He is about 40 minutes from Snetterton. He will know where you can stay, or you can stay at mine.

He has the full kit, brand new last year, including corner weighting kit, knows all the settings including the rear ones, and charges £75 plus VAT for the geo and similar for the corner weighting. And you get pretty before and after printouts, as well as free coffee and banter. He will also adjust your camber to be better on track if you so desire, as he is used to setting up Tuscan racers.
The only extras you can expect will be if he has to completely dissemble the rear suspension to unjam your rear toe adjusters. Rear Toe jam seems to be a common Chimaera problem laugh

I've had a few cars set up by Wheels in Motion. A bit of a drive from Surrey (did it in 40 mins from Chessington round the M25), but well worth it IMHO.
They really know their stuff too.
