Having seen him at the ph show this year and watching a few of his videos, does anyone have an idea on how spec'd up his tamora is? I mean that thing must need a few few replacements all the while and the amount of maintenance in the thing must be astronomical?

I mean he can sit there doing full more burnouts and slides for minutes ( im suprised it lasted that long wink ) but surely it must have had a rebuild or two in its time ? or is it not a standard motor?

Looks like the poor Tamora isn't completly immune to his abuse though:

Wasn't that just the anderson jump start connector though . the cause of many a fire in TVRs and so not really a fault of the car as such, more tvr putting it in a silly place that's likely to get damaged? I've drifted that car and it's great fun smile Raceproved look after it and it's very reliable considering the work it does !
