Like John, I never heard of the Convair race, even though I live
perhaps 80 miles from Allentown. Perhaps you could contact the Keystone
MG Club which is based in the Allentown area to see if someone there has
some knowledge of it. Also the closest T club is the Delaware Valley
Club in the Philadelphia area which is fairly close. There is also the
Philadelphia MG Club.
Search the internet for the clubs' websites. I'm sure they all have one.
