After a year of mending (ScoobiMax might say meddling) most TopGearTVR I can wholeheartedly say that it ran absolutely awesomely yesterday.

The new dinner plate brakes didn't even hint of fade after 8 or 9 hard laps.

Chuffed to bits with my rebuilt gearbox, clutch, gearbox mount, 2nd LSD, alloy LSD mount, new wheel bearings, new brake pipes, hoses, disc, pads, clutch flex pipe etc

I might go for some 4 wheel geometry stuff over the winter.....I'm sure I deserve a bit more turn in and then there's some other ideas :-)

Good to hear it's all paid off Steve, but I'm surprised you haven't had the geo set up already.
Why wait until winter? It doesn't take that long, & it doesn't cost the earth either.
I had Austin's set up after replacing the dampers & springs & fitting polybushes.
It made a huge difference, so I say go for it.

Enjoy thumbup
