Well another VA Beach trip is in the books. Unfortunately, the use of the rain date resulted in the loss of the great Ed Ericson but the weather was superb. I left at 5:30 Friday morning and met with Dale at Horne’s for a late breakfast in Port Royal, VA then a beautiful ride along the river on 17 then on into VA Beach. Arrived at 4:30 after 11…[Read more]

Change of plans. I can’t count on the MG running cool enough to make the trip. I will, instead, take a chance with Roy’s Mini. That’s been trouble free now for quite a while. Just a heads up. Wish me luck.

I might be ready. My car is finally back on the ground after being incapacitated since June.
After the Pagoda Hillclimb I had a rear shock leak all its fluid out. It was 20 years old so I removed the pair and shipped them out to the California manufacturer for a rebuild. These are double adjustable coil overs. Their website states a two week…[Read more]

Yes, MG Magic would be my first suggestion for lights and grille. With the fenders, give repairing them a shot. Fiberglass is not that difficult to work with. I have redone mine several times over the years. While flat towing in the wet I jack knifed it and destroyed everything forward of the windshield. A few weeks of work and it’s hard to tell…[Read more]

I race my V8 TD and often remove the windshield while doing so. Wind buffeting is much less with it off and just running a Brooklands. Don’t know if that is an option for you.

This might be more coherent.
First you go to your own thing. Upper right corner it should say something like “Howdy, Happy Jack.” Click on that and you get a drop-down menu. At the bottom it says “media.” Hover over that with your curser and you should see another drop-down menu with “albums,” “photos” “videos.” Click on “photos.”
That shou…[Read more]

It seems no one has posted anything in weeks. Here goes…How I spent the weekend of June 21-22.
We started with fantastic weather. A bit warm but ok. Sunday at lunch the rain started. Intermittent showers that varied in intensity. Luckily, my run group had just finished and were returning to our pits.
Here is a run from Saturday morning. The…[Read more]

As I will be towing my car to leave at the show field, I’ll have my Subaru to transport those who want to avoid any rain.
