The reason for this is that only Power's Performance quality approved parts may be used in the servicing of Power's Performance rebuilt and upgraded warrantied engines, as this helps to guarantee the life, performance and integrity of the engine. Parts supplied from any other source are not approved by Power's Performance. Unfortunately as members of the TVR Parts Network are no longer able to purchase parts from Power's Performance and subsequently no longer able to use Power's Performance approved parts in their engine servicing work, it necessarily follows that members of the TVR Parts Network are not approved to carry out Power's Performance warrantied engine service work.

Now that wouldn’t ordinarily be breaking news, only on this occasion it is, as Dominic is about to become the first Speed 6 owner to book his car in for a 200,000 mile service.
With new TVRs no longer available, Dominic decided to keep his T350T as his daily drive and had his engine rebuilt at TVR Power at 60,000 miles to ensure the reliability of the engine and to make sure, as his daily driver, he would reliably be able to get to and from work.

In the July 2011 edition of Sprint we reported that Dominic, as intended, had continued to use his T350T as his daily drive and had just collected the car back from Power’s Performance after its 160,000 mile service with nothing out of the ordinary to report. So we are now delighted to announce that, with the car still ultra-reliable and with the engine running perfectly, Dominic is about to book his car in again, but this time for its 200,000 mile service.

Dom Trickett of Powers Performance comments “Dominic previously stated that he wants his car to be the first 250,000 mile T350T and he is well on the way to achieving that. His engine is still running the original castings, crank, rods and pistons and has plenty of miles left in her yet, so 250,000 reliable Speed 6 miles for Dominic is certainly not out of the question. “Indeed with no new TVRs on the market and no realistic prospect on the horizon either, a Power’s Performance engine rebuild is probably the most sensible way of ensuring the longevity and reliability of your TVR ownership. And what about that Power’s Performance engine rebuild guarantee?

Dom continues “All our engine rebuilds, whether they are Rover V8, AJP V8 or Speed 6 come with our 3 year unlimited mileage warranty, with the option of increasing this to 5 years or 100,000 miles. From what I understand, I believe we are the only company in the world to offer this fantastic warranty package. Powers Performance can offer these warranties because we are confident in the quality of the units, in the quality of our engineering skills, in the quality of our workmanship and in the components we supply. All this culminates in our being able to provide with confidence our optional 100,000 mile warranty on all Power’s engine rebuilds. And Dominic’s T350T is testament to that.”

At this rate Dominic’s T350T should be approaching the quarter of a million mile mark towards the end of next year, so keep an eye out in Sprint for a full report on the performance  of the Speed 6 unit and for the full story and analysis of this ground-breaking, or should we say tarmac eating TVR.

From the outside the car looks no different. Under the bonnet the Chimaera engine graft, which is incredibly neat and tidy, features a Powers Performance 4.3 litre Speed 6 engine which is complimented by a Power MBE mapping system. With no external body modifications having had to be performed to accommodate the unit, the car looks completely standard but roars like a lion. It really is an impressive looking and sounding piece of kit.

With the Speed 6 unit being slightly heavier than the Rover V8,to improve balance Power has located the transplant engine three inches further back in the chassis,with acceleration and deceleration calculations confirming a very well-balanced car. The Chimaera istherefore able to run on its original Factory specification Bilstein valved dampers and maintain its original ride height. Due to hit the road this month,the Powers Performance Speed 6 transplant is a look at what TVR had intended to do before it was eventually decided to put the new Speed 6 engine in the new model Tuscan. It may not be one for the purists,but if you want to keep your Chimaera for the long-term, but like the look of a Speed 6 engine,well now you can have your cake and eat it.Now available as an offering for the open market from this month, the Powers Performance Speed 6 transplant is available as a 4.0 Red Rose, 4.3 or 4.5 litre and comes complete with a five year unlimited mileage warranty.

And isn’t it good to know that with no current TVR production and no rumours of any good newsin the pipeline,Powers Performance is continuing to invest in TVR developments, improving reliability,giving us a choice and making our cars go just that little bit quicker.

Words: HOWARD BRYAN

Dom continues “The reliability of the 4.3 and 4.5 impressed us greatly and the feedback we received from our customers cemented the fact. So we decided to take the Speed 6 as far as we could as an engineering exercise to see for ourselves how far we could develop the unit.The results so far have been very impressive.”  



Power’s development 5.0 litre Speed 6 uses the same stock valve train asthe 4.0, 4.3 and 4.5 litre engines, with a modified cam timing combination. To gain the extra capacity the 5.0 litre uses the same bore as the 4.5, but isfitted with a custom made Powers Performance stroker crank. This in turn is complimented by new, shorter H section rodsfeaturing modified pin positions.

The ultimate Speed 6 engineering exercise, Power’s new 5.0 litre test engine has already covered over 3,000 milesin Dom’s development Sagaris and so far everything is looking good; well, pretty much.

Dom explains:
The 5.0 litre’s reliability so far has been perfect and the power the engine produces is astounding.

But in actual fact there is so much power at the rear wheels, there is now an argument as to whether we fit traction control to the car to aid drivability.

Let’s just say in the wet it is character building. And I wouldn’t rule out launch control either. This is one of the fastest cars I have ever driven and getting it away without spinning up the rear wheelsis almost impossible.” Power’s current 5.0 litre development and testing programme is by no way meant to herald the release of yet another Powers Performance upgrade. But the experience gained from taking the Speed 6 to its ultimate conclusion will help the company build additional reliability into its existing engine options which at the end of the day can only benefit their army of loyal customers.

Indeed with a good amount of data from the 5.0 litre test engine now having been analysed, Power is taking the project on a step further and is currently moving into stage two of their 5.0 litre development. Dom explains “Stage two takes our crankshaft and con-rod combination on a step, building into the engine even more reliability whist developing even more power. Put simply; as an engineering exercise I want to make a reliable, high revving 5.0 litre which will make huge numbers to show what the Speed 6 isreally capable of. So watch this space.” On a lighter note it hasn’t escaped my notice that over the pastseven years of Speed 6 evolution, Dom’s development Sagaris has generally been fitted with a bigger engine than anyone else’s.

If this Managing Director’s car also happened to be fitted with a full race roll-cage I would be tempted to tell him to paint it reflex green and stick a number 8 on the side! Although I can think of one group of driversI know rather well who are no-doubt delighted that it isn’t and he won’t. The good newsisthat once Dom’s engines developments have been fully proven and released as a Powers Performance upgrade, we can be powered by exactly the same thing.
So Dom’s broad grin today is our broad grin tomorrow.

For 2011 there is one remaining round of the UEM Championship left, at the European Finals at Santa Pod in the UK. 25,000 spectators are expected on the qualifying and race days, as the best European drag racers on two and four wheels do battle. The Pro Stock bike class has been very competitive this year, with the Sovereign backed team of Jesper Thiel and Rasmus Olesen regularly run in the 7.1 bracket and even into the 7.0s with their Buell V-twins. Not wanting to be left behind, Fredrik Fredlund imported a Suzuki motor from the Karen Stoffer NHRA race team and has also gone into the 7.0 bracket. Both of these teams have also invested heavily in tuning expertise, with the Sovereign team bringing legendary Pro Stock tuner George Bryce to the European championship rounds, and Fredlund bringing leading tuner Gary Stoffer over the pond.

But coming into the European Finals, the fastest bike outside of the US is still the TVR Power Suzuki. “I think the guys in Pro Stock bike have really raised the bar this year, with 7.0 runs becoming much more regular – in fact you need to be in 7.1s to compete at all,” commented Dave Beck, “speeds have also gone up into the 190mph range now. Guys like Jesper and Fredrik have invested heavily and have got the best advice and moved the class forward.” “We had some problems early in the year, but I have worked hard with all our sponsors and advisors to get to the bottom of the issues and I’m confident we have a motor that will compete at the Finals,” Beck continued “As well as race wins, the guys are all trying hard to be the first bike over here to nail a six second run and I feel we have as good a chance as anyone to do this. We have a fresh motor in the bike now, with some key modifications, plus I also picked up some tuning learning over the summer that will help.” You can see Dave contest the European Finals on the TVR Power bike at Santa Pod from 9 to 11 September. “We are gunning for the six, but we aren’t going to forget we are there to win the event – I want to sign off the year with a big performance for my sponsors!” concludes Dave.

The sun and heat of Saturday’s free practice and qualifying were distant memories at a distinctly drab Brands Hatch on Sunday, but the GT Cup Championship again produced two dramatic races, and thoroughly entertained the ranks of spectators around the GP circuit.

Race One
The weather was a key variable in both of Sunday’s GT Cup Championship races at Brands Hatch, but it was the rain that began to fall just as the first of the two encounters began that had the biggest impact on the fates of the assembled runners.

It had been spotting for some time as the noontime start approached, but it was only as the cars headed out onto the parade lap that it began to fall sufficiently hard enough for it to be officially declared a wet race. All of the cars were still on slicks, however, and when the pace car headed for the pits, the track surface had become treacherous.
The more powerful Group 1 runners were particularly tentative at the start as they struggled for grip, but the first casualty of the race was the Group 3 Chevron of Andy Yool; the GR8 entering a spin all of its own and hitting the tyre wall on Paddock Hill Bend on the first lap with sufficient force to ensure that it would be taking no further part in proceedings.
The track was so slippery that poleman Michael Saunders considered parking his TVR Cerbera in the opening couple of laps, but he persevered and headed a line of twitchy cars round the 2.43 mile GP circuit. He had lost the lead, though; first, to the #71 Porsche 997 GT3 of Stephen Ritchie; and then – after Ritchie spun at Surtees – to the #45 Group 2 KTM X-Bow of Benjamin Harvey, who appeared to be the only driver enjoying the conditions.

After Rupert Martin’s race in the #49 Ferrari 430 GTC ended with a spin into the pitwall at the end of Lap 1, the officials decided that conditions were such that a caution period was warranted and summoned the safety car onto the track as Harvey began the third lap. With there being such a small amounts of precipitation, only two cars stopped to change to wets, leaving 14 cars on the lead lap when the race went green again with 16 minutes remaining. Harvey in the X Bow made a good restart and started to pull away from his pursuers.

Saunders’ battle with the conditions ended on Lap 6 with a spin into the Paddock Hill gravel, leaving the bright green TVR Sagaris of Danny Winstanley as the new second-placed runner. Soon, however, the first inkling of a dry line was beginning to emerge and the lap times were beginning to fall; and two quick laps from the Sagaris saw the gap from first to second fall to 0.318s.

Tom Andrew had by this point taken the Morgan Aero 8 past Colin Broster’s #15 Porsche to take second in Group 2, but now he was himself being pushed by Gary Eastwood, who was eager to take the Group 1 fight to Winstanley; the TVR having just taken the overall lead from the X-Bow. At the start of Lap 9, Eastwood saw his route past the Morgan and was up to third. Unfortunately, he didn’t see the yellow flag which was being waved while the Cerbera was moved to a place of safety and this would have consequences later on.
More immediately, however, Stephen Ritchie had another spin and dropped his Porsche into the Clarke’s gravel, necessitating a second caution period.

At this point, with seven minutes to go, Harvey’s KTM was the only non-Group 1 car in the top six, but he still held second overall. His six-second advantage over Eastwood had now disappeared, however.  Andy Ruhan, meanwhile, had just set the fastest lap of the race so far to close up to third in Group 1. Further back, Mark Radcliffe had just taken advantage of a slow lap from the BMW E46 of Adam Hayes, to snatch the Group 3 lead in his #19 M3. 

The safety car pulled off with less than three minutes on the clock, meaning only two more laps would be possible. Eastwood pounced too soon on the restart and passed Harvey before the line, but this time realised his error and back off to allow the positions to reset themselves. But with the track now quickly drying, it wasn’t long before a legitimate pass was completed; Ruhan and the #66 Ferrari 430 of Michael Symons also going by the X-Bow.
Danny Winstanley began Lap 13 with a 1.2 second lead and took full advantage of the clear track ahead to finish the race with a new fastest lap of 1:33.973, and taking the flag for the second time this season 2.096s ahead of Gary Eastwood. Andy Ruhan finished third, a further two seconds back. A steward’s decision post-race would, however, see Eastwood penalised 20 seconds for passing under yellows and this dropped him to fifth in Group 1 and tenth overall, Symons being promoted to third in the process.
Despite losing another place on the final lap, Benjamin Harvey had enough in reserve to take the Group 2 win, with Tom Andrew a close second in the Morgan. Colin Broster took third in Group 2, finishing behind the Invitation BMW E92 of Wayne Gibson.
Mark Radcliffe completed his final two green laps in strong fashion to claim Group 3 honours, with Adam Hayes taking second. Barclay Dougall had had a difficult time in the obviously under-par #37 BMW E46, but his refusal to give up saw him rewarded with third in the group and more valuable championship points.
 
Race Two
Between the first race ending and the second beginning, the rain began to fall over Kent more forcefully, but this at least meant that wets were the only option as the 16:00 start time approached.

The race began with two laps behind the safety car because of the conditions, the clock starting at the start of the second. When the cars were released, it was Matt Seldon who grabbed the lead at Paddock Hill bend in the Group 1 #23 BMW E46 and held on as the cars sped on out into the woods. Michael Saunders was second in the #99 Cerbera, with Andy Ruhan third in the #6 Porsche 997 GT3; and – there he is again – Benjamin Harvey leading Group 2 and fourth overall in the #45 KTM X-Bow.

As the leaders emerged into Clearways and rounded the Clark Curve, Seldon led by 1.3s, with Ruhan a further second back. Gary Eastwood took fourth from Harvey in the #89 Ferrari along the Brabham Straight, but Danny Winstanley was down in eighth in the Race One-winning Sagaris. Tom Andrew was second in Group 2, but there were five cars between the X-Bow and the Morgan; while Group 3 leader Adam Hayes had the luxury of only one car separating his #9 E46 from Mark Radcliffe’s #19 M3.

Eastwood took third from Ruhan with a bold move down the inside of Paddock Hill Bend at the start of Lap 3 and began the task of closing on the yellow TVR ahead. Saunders, however, had just set the fastest lap to close to within a second of Seldon.   

The Group 2 battle looked poised to close up as the Group 1 runners continued to pass Harvey’s X-Bow, but Andrew almost immediately put himself out of contention for group honours by dropping the Morgan into the Druids gravel on Lap 4 and causing the safety car to be scrambled for a third time. The Morgan was recovered and continued without pitting, but the two laps lost were never likely to be recoverable.

The race went green again at the end of Lap 6, with almost exactly ten minutes left on the clock.
Seldon held onto his lead, but the restart was not without significant incident. Andy Ruhan managed to spin the #6 Porsche at Clearways, even before the race went green again, and lost several places; while Mark Radcliffe’s BMW and the #49 Ferrari of Rupert Martin tangled at Surtees on the restart lap. Both were able to continue, but the Group 3 race was settled in favour of Adam Hayes at that moment.

Saunders was once more applying the screws to Seldon and had worked the gap to the leader down to just a quarter of a second by then end of Lap 9, but as the two dived down towards Graham Hill bend on the next lap, the BMW’s rear end seemed to snap out a bit and Saunders took avoiding action. Fortunately for Seldon, he held on and retained the lead; unfortunately for Saunders, he spun and dropped to fourth.  

With three minutes remaining, we had two Group battles closing up – Seldon v Eastwood in Group 1 at 1.154s after ten laps, and Harvey v Broster in Group 2 at 2.024. These gaps halved on the next lap, meaning that changes were possible on the final lap.

All eyes were on Clearways as the clock ran out, but it was the BMW that came through first; the Ferrari clearly too far back to make a move in the distance remaining. Matt Seldon took the win by 0.472s from Eastwood, with Danny Winstanley taking third in the #99 TVR Sagaris.

Moments later, it was the X-Bow that emerged from the GP loop with enough of an advantage to take the Group 2 win; Colin Broster falling just 0.546s shy of Benjamin Harvey after a great battle. Francis Galashan took third in the #57 Porsche 996.

Things were less dramatic for Adam Hayes, who took the Group 3 win by 25 seconds from Mark Radcliffe. Barclay Dougall again nursed his ailing E46 to a distant third.

Round four out of nine of the 2011 GT Cup Championship takes place at Snetterton 300 on June 25th/26th.

As mentioned in previous blogs, we bent an inlet valve in taking the win at the Thunderball and as a result the motor came down to the last nut and bolt. We had planned to do this anyway – we had some new ideas in there already, and also we learnt some things during the meeting, so we wanted to use Easter as a test, then get some more development work done.

Straight after the meeting, the motor was down and with some help from crew member Richard Cawthorn and good old FedEx, the components were in the US the same week. The top end has been in Professor Paul Gast’s workshop, not only to replace the valve, but for some subtle but important modifications to be carried out. Paul’s guys worked all last weekend to get this done and it was fully rebuilt and ready to drop on by early last week. To show what commitment the FBG team has, Paul Gast himself even jumped in the car and drove the head to FedEx in order it could get back to us a day early. As well as the head, some trick clutch parts also made their way over from the FBG Grand Island workshop.

Down in Florida, Eric’s top-notch team were all over the block and pistons, installing some new liners and pistons with some trick new coatings. An uprated Falicon crank was also sourced as well. Mike Berry let us have some upgraded parts for the vacuum pump, plus some new ceramic bearing parts courtesy of Dave Conforti’s Worldwide Bearings have made their way into the mix. Don Plesser of PR Factory Store is working with us closely on some ignition modifications. We have even gone to the lengths of spending a lot of time discussing oil and lubrication with Steve Clark at Nimbus Motorsport.

While in themselves, these are all tiny improvements, I’m hoping that together they can give us that all-important edge. As I have said many times, the rest of the guys haven’t been sitting around all winter, as evidenced by PBs from Martin Bishop, Kalle Lyren and Jesper Thiel in the Hungary round.  Here we are with four top-flight players having run a personal best at their first meeting of 2011. This isn’t going to be a season where anyone can sleep.

So this weekend has been all about painstakingly putting the number one motor back together. And it doesn’t finish there. The backup motor was also treated to some new parts, so once the record setting motor is back together, then another needs stripping and rebuilding.

None of this has come for free and I have to thank Dom Trickett of team lead sponsor TVR Power and Stephen Moon for stepping up in a big way with financial support. Thanks very much guys, we wouldn’t be racing this year without your backing. As well as this support MTC Engineering, Fast by Gast, PR Factory Store, Worldwide Bearings, Nimbus Motorsport and VP Fuels have all stepped forward with expertise and parts, or in some cases both. I’m very fortunate to have the backing of these top quality people.

I spent hours and hours looking at the data from the Easter meeting and I really think we have a fast motorcycle here. As always, Paul Gast was happy to step forward and look at the data in some depth as well. His view was that other than a very small possible change to a clutch setting, the bike was as close to spot on as it could be and he felt it would have run well into the sixes if fielded at the Gainesville NHRA opener. It’s great that Paul takes the time to look at the data, and it gives me a lot of satisfaction when one of the world’s best tuners tells me I have the tune up in there.

Only two weeks to go now! The plan is to give the motor a gentle half pass at the Peak Performance Day on the Thursday, then spend Friday taking the motor down and checking it all out, prior to the first qualifier on Saturday. And when we line up on Saturday, I am giving it everything, we are showing up fully loaded for the win.  It would be nice to challenge our new European best of 7.06 as well, but for now, let’s focus on the win.

Round 2 - Oulton Park - 14th May 2011

RACE 1:
Alex Martin, making his first 2011 season appearance in the GT Cup Championship, looked to have the day’s first race wrapped up within a couple of laps, but then it all went wrong in the final minute and Danny Winstanley found himself taking a win in the #78 TVR Sagaris.
 
Pole-man David Tomlin made an excellent start, and held the lead on the opening lap, but Alex Martin soon had the measure of the heavier Ferrari and pulled alongside as the two began lap two, taking the lead into Old Hall. With an open track ahead of him Martin soon pulled out a considerable lead. 
 
Behind him a thrilling battle developed between Tomlin, Tarrant-Willis and championship leader Ruhan. These three diced nose-to-tail for the next 15 laps, with little between them but a few layers of paint – and occasionally, even less than that. Tomlin defended his line with remarkable cunning, while Tarrant-Willis needed one eye permanently on his mirrors just to keep tabs on Ruhan. The Porsche driver tried every opening, but a full 60 kilos of success ballast denied him the grunt he needed to punch a way through.
 
Otherwise preoccupied, nobody quite grasped that the real threat was looming large in the shape of Danny Winstanley in the Sagaris. From 6th, the youngster was challenging for fourth by the beginning of lap 5, passing Ruhan down the pit straight, and instantly latching on to Tarrant-Willis. The TVR was through to third at Cascades later on the same lap, and then caught Tomlin out of Lodge. Winstanley powered over the crest and onto the straight to snatch second across the line. 
 
He then began shaving seconds off Martin’s advantage with every lap, and with the leader running two seconds shy of his earlier pace, the margin shrunk to less than nine seconds. Even so, there seemed little hope for a change before the flag, so it was some surprise when Alex Martin failed to turn up for the chequered flag, and Winstanley swept across the line to record his first win of the season. 
 
No change for second, third or fourth, with the same trio taking the flag in the order they’d started lap two: Tomlin from Tarrant-Willis and Ruhan. Martin, meanwhile, was embedded in the gravel at Island. “I just couldn’t hold the line. I drifted out onto the marbles and next moment I had a wheel onto the grass, and that was it,” he said later.
 
The race in Group 2 held similar parallels. Tom Andrew in the #7 Morgan Aero had established a double-figure lead by lap six and looked comfortable for the win, but in the final stages a fuel pressure issue set in, allowing Colin Broster, in a smoky Porsche 996, to close. He took the group lead on the penultimate lap and then won by nearly three seconds. Colin Simpson took third in the rumbling #16 Marcos Mantis.
 
Andy Yool had started the race from the back row in the Group 3 Chevron GR8, but with the set-up issues that had curtailed his qualifying run fully sorted, he was able to steer the svelte coupé through the tail-end and take the win from tenth overall, although his margin over Barclay Dougall (BMW E46) was a mere eight-tenths at the flag. Adam Hayes finished third.

RACE 2:
If the day’s first race had been a thriller, then Race Two offered even more entertainment, and a very different outcome.
 
With pole-setter Alex Martin scrubbed from the entry after his earlier accident, the front row was shared by David Tomlin and Andy Ruhan for the afternoon race, but it was Ruhan this time who got the flying start. He was into Old Hall and clear of Tomlin even before the pack reached Cascades. Toby Tarrant-Willis held third from Benjamin Harvey, heading Group 2 after a stunning run in wet qualifying.
 
Those opening seconds might have held the script for the rest of the race if an unfortunate Colin Simpson hadn’t run wide through the first corner, and gone grass-tracking. He regained the tarmac, but next time around went off again into Cascades, perhaps with a front wishbone failure, and thumped heavily into the Armco. The Mantis bounced back across the track, and the Safety Car was instantly deployed.
 
A couple of laps behind the Safety Car bunched the field up nicely, but on the restart Ruhan and Tomlin were swiftly back into their stride, easing out a comfortable cushion over Tarrant-Willis and Harvey. As before, the one to watch was the mercurial Danny Winstanley, starting from 10th but running 4th by lap seven, and closing fast on the leaders.
 
Another moving quickly through the ranks was Mike Saunders in the TVR Cerbera, through to 6th by lap 8 from 11th and gunning for Don Grice in the BMW M3. The yellow TVR looked strong, despite running on tyres that were two races old already. Saunders took 5th out of Cascades on lap 9, and then eased into fourth two laps later.
 
With Ruhan leading by more than 3 seconds, the pressure was mounting on David Tomlin in second. Winstanley and the vivid green TVR were closing fast, and the two started lap 12 almost nose-to-tail. The TVR was up the inside into Old Hall, and then side by side on the exit. Accounts differ, but the result was the same. Side on contact saw Tomlin loosing out and spinning off across the grass, and then spearing backwards across the track and relatively unscathed into the gravel at Cascades, narrowly missing the tail of Winstanley’s Sagaris.
 
This briefly elevated Saunders to third, but his tyres were well past their best, and next time through Druids the rubber finally let go and the Cerbera was backwards into the gravel. “I out-drove it really,” he shrugged,. “All my own fault”.
 
No such dramas for the leaders, with Andy Ruhan, blissfully devoid of success ballast this time around, delighted to take a third win in four races. Still pumping adrenalin from his earlier success, Danny Winstanley took an emphatic second, with Toby Tarrant-Willis a second consecutive third of the day.
 
Once again, Group 2 provided close racing throughout, with Tom Andrew’s Morgan closing to within 2 seconds of Harvey in the KTM Xbow by the flag, no recurrence of the earlier fuel problems. A somewhat distant third was Francis Galashan’s Porsche after Colin Broster’s a close-running but smoky 996 gave up on the last lap.
 
A switch of fortunes in Group 3, with Andy Yool missing Race 2 with a holed radiator and honours falling to Mark Radcliffe in the #19 BMW M3, well clear of Barclay Dougal second and Adam Hayes third.

This Rover V8 and AJP V8 warranty comes on the back of Power’s recently launched and highly successful 100,000 Speed 6 warranty package and demonstrates their confidence not only in the product, but also in their engineering, rebuild and upgrade capabilities.

Dom explains, “The uptake of our 100,000 mile Speed 6 warranty option has been exceptional and Speed 6 engine rebuilds and upgrades are an important part of our business. However we have had a number of serious enquiries from both Rover V8 and AJP V8 owners who are looking for rebuilds and upgrades, and would also like to enjoy the same 100,000 mile warranty package. So we have rolled this out to offer Rover V8, AJP V8 and Speed 6 pilots the same peace of mind. And we think it’s a terrific deal.

Power already offered the choice of either 3 or 5 year unlimited mileage warranties on all their engine rebuilds and upgrades, but they are now offering their superb 100,000 mile warranty option on Rover V8, AJP V8 and Speed 6 units too. So whatever TVR engine you own, TVR Power should have you covered.

“Our 3 and 5 year warranty options are incredibly popular and you can have your car serviced at any TVR Power approved service centre,” continues Dom “the 100,000 mile warranty is a little more involved, so we ask that our 100,000 mile warranty customers bring their cars back to TVR Power to allow us to service them personally. And if the V8 warranties prove as popular as our Speed 6 warranty, we’re going to be kept very busy.”

For more information on all TVR Power rebuild, upgrade and warranty packages call Dom at TVR Power on 0247 636 6177 or email him on dom@tvrpower.com

This 12 month unlimited mileage warranty is being offered by TVR Power to further increase confidence in the Speed 6 unit and to reassure owners who may be looking to clock up the miles in 2011. Dom Tickett of TVR Power explains, "Whilst we are offering an optional 100,000 mile warranty on our in-house TVR Power Speed 6 rebuilds, we are seeing less and less problems with standard Speed 6 powered cars which have not yet had a rebuild. In fact we now have that much confidence in the original factory built Speed 6 units that we are happy to underwrite these engines and help bring even more confidence back to the market."

To qualify for this amazing Speed 6 engine warranty TVR Power simply ask that you book in with them for a £240 tappet service, which includes an oil and filter change, plus a one hour vehicle inspection. If the vehicle is given a clean bill of health then for £750 you can enjoy a full 12 months of unlimited mileage Speed 6 worry free miles. The only proviso is that should your car require a service within the 12 month warranty period, you return it back to TVR Power for them to carry out the work.

Dom concludes, "Not only will we offer you a full 12 months of worry-free Speed 6 driving, but should your Speed 6 engine have a problem and require a rebuild during the 12 month warranty period, TVR Power will rebuild your engine free of charge and as with all TVR Power rebuilds you will receive a three year unlimited mileage warranty on your rebuilt unit, plus the option to upgrade to our 100,000 mile engine warranty. Confidence in the Speed 6 unit? Absolutely!

To avoid the rush and book your Speed 6 in, call Dom on 0247 636 6177 or email him on dom@tvrpower.co.uk

With over 400 Speed 6 rebuilds completed including 80 upgrades, we haven’t experienced a serious mechanical problem with any one of them, so we are pleased to be able to offer this exceptional 100,000 mile warranty with confidence to all Speed 6 rebuild customers.”

Power now has a good number of high mileage Speed 6 rebuilds out there, with a T350T coming in for a 100,000 mile engine service in the new year. The T350T which is used as a daily driver had its Red Rose Speed 6 engine rebuilt at 60,000 miles is now fast approaching 160,000 miles. When it returns to Power the engine will be stripped, inspected and fully documented by TVR Power  with the results set to be published exclusively in TVR Sprint Magazine.

TVR Power has demonstrated 100% confidence in its product and we are only too happy to demonstrate that confidence in offering this optional 100,000 mile warranty on all our Speed 6 complete rebuilt engines. For many customers 100,000 miles will mean the lifetime of their car, so what could be better?”

To find out more about the TVR Power 100,000 mile Speed 6 warranty call Dom on 0247 636 6177 or email him on dom@tvrpower.co.uk

TVR Power explains. “We believe that developing the cars is only part of the story and that TVR Power Speed 6 customers will benefit greatly from spending time with Mark, developing their skills and learning more about the capability and characteristics of what’s underneath them. It should be a superb and invaluable day.” Mark who was 1986 South of England Tarmac Rally Champion and 1997 British Midland Hill climb Champion will be showing TVR Power Speed 6 customers how to get the best from their cars as well as helping them to develop their advanced driving and handling skills. And if you finish the day a more accomplished driver than when you started, what could be better.

We will also have a 4.3 Tuscan and our development 4.5 Sagaris on hand to demonstrate the difference in the characteristics of our two upgrades and to allow customers to get a good feel for the packages too. So all in all it should be a fun, beneficial and exhilarating day

To book in your Speed 6 or to enquire about a Supersports test drive, call Dom Trickett on 02476 366 177 or email him on dom@tvrpower.co.uk

And to help beat the January VAT increase, book your car in for 2011 and pay your deposit now and TVR Power will guarantee you the pre-VAT increase price. What could be better?

The 2009 version of the bike had set a new European record of 7.07 seconds for the standing quarter mile, but in a sport where every extra hundredth of a second makes a difference, this meant the winter had to see some comprehensive changes to the Tvr power bike.

Dave and Dom agreed that a new chassis would make a difference, as the 330bhp plus carburetted petrol motor had found the limits of the old chassis. So a new PMFR chassis arrived from the US a few days before Christmas. The Tvr Power team spent many, many hours building the new rolling chassis, crowning it with a brand new carbon fibre body. Most of the chassis has had new powder coating applied and the final stage will be a new Tvr Power paint job.

A lot of work has gone into the engine programme as well, with many new parts coming from MTC Engineering in Florida. The team have been looking hard at the cylinder heads in addition – Dave and Dom have many years experience in cylinder head development and together with US-based Rick Ward, the designer and builder of the heads, they are confident there is more power to be found. Ward Engineering have developed some new technology for the heads in recent months and this may find its way onto the bike during the year.

No stone is left unturned in the quest for more performance, an example being the ceramic bearings throughout the chassis and engine. Dave is looking closely at all areas, including exhaust design and vacuum pumps.

“We spend hundreds of hours looking for the tiniest increase in power, or reduction in drag or rolling resistance” noted Dave “the competition at European level is intense and with more new riders entering the class it will be even more competitive in 2010. Tvr Power bring a lot to our racing programme and I’m confident we will have the right hardware to achieve our goals”

While securing the number one qualifying slot on Saturday, the team suffered its first engine failure in two and a half years, resulting in total destruction of the record setting motor. To make matters worse, a rod exiting the motor cut straight through the frame. Thanks to the skills and efforts of Jerry Collier, the chassis was repaired on Saturday, before the super team of Ric Naylor and Tom Lynskey installed another bullet ready for the eliminations on Sunday.

Sunday saw Dave stage the Tvr Power bike for his semi-final bye run, then in the final the win light came on as Len Paget left early, leaving Dave to limp home on a misfiring motor to take the event win. “One of the ugliest wins we have had” smiled Dave “But it secured that UK Bike Championship for all our sponsors and my super team, so I’ll take that any day.”

The loss of the record setting motor and serious damage to the chassis has thrown planning for 2010 into the air, with the team currently seeking financial support to rebuild the motor and to replace the chassis. “We understand from Sandy Kosman that this is probably the oldest Kosman frame running in Pro Stock” noted Dave “But I’m afraid that we need to replace it now, which is a cost we hadn’t accounted for. But that’s Pro Stock – we push these motors hard and sometimes that’s the price of being quick. Looking on the bright side, we think a new chassis will make the bike even quicker in 2010.”

Dave would like to thank Tvr Power, MTC Engineering, Ward Performance, PR Factory Store, Nimbus Motorsports, Motorshack, Steve Howe & Sons and Stephen Moon Consulting.

An off the trailer 7.22 at 160mph was enough to lead the first round of qualifying and the incremental showed the bike was still in the kind of form seen at the European Finals. “The sixty foot and 330 foot times were both better than on our record setting 7.07 run” noted Dave “but the bike wouldn’t shift into sixth, so we left something on the table at the top end. But it demonstrates that we have a solid 7.0 tune up now.” Round two of qualifying resulted in a 7.15 at 182mph, delivering a new ET record for the UK, backed up by the first run of the day.

Race day saw the Tvr Power bike defeat Mark Smith in the first round with a 7.26 at 179mph. The final saw a face off against veteran Pro Stock campaigner Len Paget, with Beck showing keen start line reactions and a quicker 7.21 at 182mph to take the win over the 7.39 in the other lane.

“This was a great first outing for us under the Tvr Power banner” smiled Dave “We are getting a great handle on the tune up and it showed in the consistency over the weekend. Once again my super team of Charlotte, Ric, Tom and Stephen delivered the goods.”

As previously mentioned on Eurodragster, the plan for 2010 is to contest at least four UEM rounds in addition to the ACU Championship. “Our 2010 engine programme is already underway thanks to Rick at Ward Performance and Eric at MTC. The Vance & Hines and Buell motors are going to be tough, but we think we can respond. Our goal is to win some UEM rounds and to be the first six second Pro Stock bike outside the US” commented Dave.

In addition to lead sponsor Tvr Power, the team is supported by MTC Engineering, Ward Performance, PR Factory Store, Nimbus Motorsports, Motorshack, Steve Howe & Sons and Stephen Moon Consulting.

Improved brake pad performance with COTEC

This advanced silicate coating is applied to the friction material of replacement brake pads, resulting in an improved contact between the brake disc and pad.

TRW COTEC brake pads can stop vehicles up to seven metres quicker than other premium brake pads during the first few stops following a pad change (known as the bedding-in period). This innovative technology means that we out-perform all major competitors during the bedding-in period of the pad, when the friction co-efficient is lower than usual.

• Discs produced with High Carbon have optimal thermal conductivity, allowing the discs to run cooler and, as a result, ensure more consistent brake performance
• A High Carbon brake disc is less likely to distort, which means less performance-related problems
• High Carbon improves the thermal behaviour of the discs, giving better stability and increased resistance to distortion and thermal cracking
• High Carbon discs also help to provide a noise and judder-free performance

This kit is ideal for the TVR owner who wants to fully exploit the outstanding road ability of their car but still wishes to retain a compliant ride with a good level of ride comfort. Extensive development between Nitron and Powers Performance has enabled us to arrive and a compromise that truly enhances the driving experience well beyond that provided by the factory suspension set up.

This kit is specifically intended for TVR owners that use their car for regular track activities and for the press-on road driver. Increased spring rates and optimised damper settings ensure extremely capable track ability and behaviour that satisfies professional and club drivers alike. The characteristics of the Nitron dampers are such that although the ride on the road becomes firm with this kit, they still offer a reasonable degree of ride comfort.

NTR Race R3 kits set the standard for ultimate p

erformance. The design, responsible for the VLN Nurburgring lap record, offers racers and engineers unparalleled damping control.

Achieving success in some of the most challenging endurance races around the world, Race R3 kits are reliable and virtually eliminate fade. Through use of a class-leading 46mm piston design and ultra-strong piston rod, Race R3 shocks demonstrate exceptional levels of damping control and refinement.

Tailored to high-profile drivers, the NTR Race shock’s performance is achieved through accurate control of its 3-way independent damping. Instant feedback is transmitted from the wheels, allowing the limits of traction to be confidently explored.

Available over a wide range of sport, formula and GT platforms.

A piggyback or remote reservoir allows for tool-free, quick, simple and independent control of compression and rebound damping. Widely praised by journalists and revered in paddocks across Europe, North America and Japan.

The Ultimate 1-Way Nitron solution for your track-driven TVR! These single adjustable racing shocks offer amazing performance and simple tuning for those who demand the best suspension but need to conform to spec regulations. This is a full race shock, the larger piston providing more control over the very short shock motions found under braking and corner exit under power. This is a no-compromise shock for the serious racer who really needs the ultimate while staying within certain regulations.

Improved brake pad performance with COTEC

This advanced silicate coating is applied to the friction material of replacement brake pads, resulting in an improved contact between the brake disc and pad.

TRW COTEC brake pads can stop vehicles up to seven metres quicker than other premium brake pads during the first few stops following a pad change (known as the bedding-in period). This innovative technology means that we out-perform all major competitors during the bedding-in period of the pad, when the friction co-efficient is lower than usual.
