CLEVER TREVOR AND RACEPROVED PROVIDE SUPPORT TO TERRY GRANT
Terry Grant is a stunt driver known throughout the world and holder of numerous world records for his exploits in a variety of cars including a TVR Tamora. With Terry's style of driving a great deal of stress is put on all parts of the cars, especially the clutch. Terry found that he was using up clutches at an alarming rate as well as having problems with loss of clutch due to overheating fluid so he came to Clever Trevor for help. We spoke to Raceproved who immediately agreed to develop special lightweight plates that would be stronger than the original. After a period of development the first set of plates were provided and installed in the Tamora along with an alloy slave cylinder that provided better heat dissipation. Terry was immediately delighted with it the new set up and reported no problems at all. We were recently contacted by Terry who asked if he could have a replacement for the original plates as they were beginning to wear having lasted six times longer than the normal plates! These plates are of the metallic paddle type (see picture) and will shortly become available on our website for those who have hard-used road cars. New plates were prepared and we were able to present them to Terry at the Autosport Show at the NEC. Once again Terry expressed his delight at the quality and durability of these units which were still as responsive as when first installed. Terry also expressed his desire to have a greater association with Clever Trevor and Raceproved. Little did we know how soon that was going to happen ............. but that is another story!
