TVR Cerbera 4.2 Harewood Hillclimb 1999 & near crash

[AlphaV2]

Some people dont like the way that Flat Crank design V8 engines sound... I do however and this engine delivers a ridiculous amount of horsepower for a normally aspirated two valve per cylinder set up... Ferarri knew what they were doing when they opted for the same design.

I wouldn't call that a near crash...more of a tankslapper ! just proves you're trying:o)

@sean55719 - not quite, it was the standard factory paper element (£3.99) still in there, its just sounds rorty and serious on full throttle

[sean55719]

@M4OON ahaha 3.99?!? i love it

It's without doubt one of the worst handling cars ever made, but so loveable and great fun.

[fazorator]

@StuRaz its not the handing its the traction thats the problem.

[M4OON]

@fazorator - Mate , you got it 100% right there - you know what your on about ! a Friend i know had a Lambo Diablo with what looked like huge 'road-rollers' for tyres - and with much less BHP !

[M4OON]

Plus 1990's Bridgestone SO2's were NOWHERE near as good as todays road legal 'track' rubber :-(

[fazorator]

@M4OON something about that era in high proformence cars that all try to out do each other in who can die the quickest category lol. Frigging bonkers 

[StuRaz]

@fazorator When a Cerbera lets go they're very hard to redeem, as you can see here. Granted 90's tyre compounds won't help but most serious TVR track nerds had upgraded suspension to help. I believe there are several good alternatives to make them behave better for a good price. I've been after one for a while just never had the balls (and the bank manager's approval :[ ) to bite the bullet and get one!
