It's not an MG, but here's the Miata that's helped inspire my build. The only fundamental difference between it and my GT is going to be my rear suspension setup. That's at a local Corvette club autocross, I took FTD by nearly 4 seconds over the next fastest car. And now, this Miata has another 100 hp over what it had in the video...

Not MG or V8 related, but some might enjoy this. In-car video from my Miata in the Targa Newfoundland. There's video of almost every stage, but this one has subtitles so you can see what the navigator was saying. The navigator, by the way, is my wife. She's the one I'm building the GT for.

I've got more video of my non-V8, non-MG cars, but that's probably enough for now smiling smiley

On impulse, I did a Youtube search for what was possibly the most obnoxious, yet infectiously catchy song of the 1970's, "Cuddly Toy" performed by an extremely annoying group named "Artsy".
I didn't find the Artsy version (Thank God!) but I did find the original version by The Monkees, and guess what? They are riding in an MG! Not quite a B, it's an MGA but I am including the link below for your viewing and listening pleasure as I couldn't figure out how to grab the picture..
Don't blame me if you wake up in the middle of the night with this song in your head!

Cheers,
Rich

Sorry, wrong forum but you guys may as well have the pleasure of seeing this too!

"I used a Windows or DOS machine back in high school for typing class. They do make great typewriters."

I hear they make great flying discs when in laptop form, given their rectangular shape.
