Bill,
They have a wash and vacuum area right as you drive into the Carlisle fairgrounds for everyone to use if needed – not sure if it costs. This is not a judged show anyway and everyone is cool and it will be a good time – no pressure -

Bill,
Hook up w/ me when you get there and we will see what is involved in getting into the autocross/cost etc.The always have a dyno up and running the whole weekend – mostly the cobra type group there, but but they will dyno anyone. I remember it a bit pricey for me. -

Weather sounds like it will be great – looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new friends.
I will be there on Thursday afternoon through Sunday morning – anyone can reach me on my cell if you want to meet up – I will be going to most if not all of the Speedster functions, but I think we should all cut out on Saturday sometime for a TD… -

Love to come – sounds like something I want to try, but not sure I will make it at this point.
It’s a long haul plus 60 miles then long haul back – I guess I could flat tow to your house. -
Dale Schumacher replied to the topic Rallye in MD in the forum General Discussion 13 years, 5 months ago
Sounds cool Ed – you going? I will check and see how far from my house.Never done one of these – does it require a navigator who knows what they are doing?

Costs…[Read more]

Craig,
I have a old Fiberfab MG TD – I restored it a few years back and just put it all back together so never was in your position. I can however measure mine ( side panels etc. ) and take pictures and email them if that will help. Email me off line if you want to take me up on the offer.dlschu42 at comcat.net Substitute @ for the atDale -
Dale Schumacher replied to the topic Wire Wheels in the forum General Discussion 13 years, 5 months ago
Montie,I think those may be the wheels I have on mine – I think I paid about 350.00 to my door at the time.They told me it would fit the 4x 130mm, but it was not so – I had to have a local machinist re-drill my rotors/hubs for 50.00 total. They work real nice on my ride and I like them – the off set is wrong if they are to fit under the fenders.…[Read more]

Sounds good – like I said – I could go either way – I am sure it will be pick your own seat so it will be easy to arrange our own table if that is what everyone wants to do.For a long time Paul and I were the only TD guys w/ all the speedie guys and although sometimes it felt like we were outsiders I think we are now part of the group – It would…[Read more]

Guys,
Is everyone that is going to Carlisle going to the Saturday night gig? Seems cost is 30.00 a head – a little high in my book, but I can go either way. Just thinking out loud here, but it might be a good night for the MG guys to have their on gig ( dinner ). I am going to all the rest of the activities ( Thursday – Sunday and I do own a… -

Ed,
How about a TD challenge on the Auto track – best time once around? -
Dale Schumacher replied to the topic January ride in NC in the forum General Discussion 13 years, 8 months ago
Roy,
The original German pulleys also work better – they are
designed to sling the oil back into the engine – if you
have a drip back there it is most likely because you are
using a after market pulley and it was not machined
correctly. I had this problem and went back to German NOS
and all was good. It may not look as good, but works.

Guys – my place just off of 95 in Stafford VA can be a good
stopping point if anyone is coming up from the south – just
let me know and we can hook up and drive up together.

Paul – I just saw this – I was sorry to hear brother –
After loosing my Dad,brother and my best and oldest
childhood friend in the last two years I can feel your
pain.
I have you in my prayers – give me a call or email if you
ever need to talk – it takes lots of time to heal, but you
never really get over loosing someone so close.

JC Witnney and others have a stick on heat shield that goes up to about 2000
degrees F that you can stick to your fiberglass between the glass and the
muffler – should help – did mine. -
