Ze first picture is of the rear end of the TVR, this shows the "I said I was trying" marks note middle of rear nearside wheelarch.
you may also notice my nice collection of amatures behind the car!

the third picture show just how hard I really was pushing or rather what happened when I tried to go quicker, although it is possible

the 4th picture is of the chassis, as usual I have glued the moteur at the front and back and all the relevent bearings and other gubbins, once the glue had dried I dowsed the lot in WD40 and put some heavier oil on the bearings of motor , shaft and axle.

the 5th picture shows that I have removed and got rid of the 2 central screws that appear to have no use apart from a speed restriction, I have slackened off the rear screws by 1+1/4 turns

now, remember that there isnt much low down grunt to the car, so treat it as it has severe turbo lag in other words, keep the throttle open as long as possible that means late braking and early accelerating or even holding the throttle on in longer bends to prevent the throetic "turbo" "dropping off boost". Acheiving this will make the car look fast in the bends, but appear to have no or little acceleration on the strights as most acceleration should be have acheived exiting the corner.
I hope this helps

p.s if your the car isnt wriggling coming out of bends you arent going quick enough!
