How to make a Tamora go faster

[SHIFTY]

(1) Buy a sports exhaust, this is not the part that makes it go faster (yet).





(2) Decide to install yourself.




(3) Take off rear lower aerofoil.


(4) Empty the approximate 5 gallons of water contained within the aerofoil, now car will go faster as less weight.

Seriously though, two great big holes on the upper rear surface of the aerofoil that will allow water in, have now drilled some small holes in rear for it to escape.

Oh and the exhaust, still grinning after run last night.

Car not asmatic now with super sports exaust, they have been modified to stop rubbing on the undertray, completed by maufufacturer using a "brummie hammer".

Le Mans here we come.

Cool , When you say 'aerofoil', are you referring to the 'rear diffuser'?, if so, I had no idea it was hollow!

[SHIFTY]

Chris

Yes, rear diffuser it is hollow, I just wanted to make sure that any water could run out as i did not know what if any damage would occur if left "filled" with water.

I will check mine the next time I wash it, (or chage the exaust baffle for the SP silver one!! )

Try pressing the far righthand aluminum pedal harder to the floor in the drivers footwell.
Works for me

maybe the water is a factory fit to keep the back end down ? ?

[dicky]

i was going to say let my wife drive it, she does seem to "use the force" as she drives it. A lot quicker than me.

Shifty,

My diffuser filled with water as well, or it did till i ground a bit off so the supersports exhaust would fit. The diffuser is suprisingly heavy considering its hollow?

Thats where the mods come in on the super sports exhaust, not so much round at the bottom more like oval due to a heavy helping of the brummie screwdriver (lump hammer).

Shifty - which exhaust did you fit, and where are you camping at Le Mans? I'm heading over later today, staying at Beausejour

[K.K.]

Where abouts in the rear diffuser did you drill the holes? Can you post some pictures?

[Merefield]

Doesn't the increased weight of the water improve rear wheel grip and therefore make the car quicker??

AlexRWD/K.K.

Alex was camping in Houx just got back 3am this morning, incredable few days, only seen two other Tamora's silver and blue.

K.K holes drilled in back of diffuser, there is approx 5mm of space used a 3mm drill.

Water enters via two 2" holes that are conceled under the rear of the car, did try blocking them up with rubber grommets but no good as when putting back on the bodywork simply pushed them into the diffuser.
