How are the Rover V8s for oil surge Gerry? Brother is looking to do Brands Hatch trackday this autumn, probably TVR club event.

You're asking the wrong person as I know sweet FA about rv8s.
What I do know is that after a glorious day of hooning around NW on an activity day, I came away with an almighty knock from the rear end and OPA (oil pressure alarm) displayed on the digi-dash. This one was described as having a baffled sump.

Make of that, what you will

And just wave at the passing Scoobies.

Sorry, couldn't resist either

And while we're at it, white's the best colour

I was having an off day and feeling sorry for you. To go all that way, sleep rough overnight and then not win would have been too much for my conscience.

There, I've said it now.

I was going to say "Get back on topic" but the OP started it. Must be getting bored
