Hmm, let's see -- the 1500 Midget vs. Spitfire race MIGHT be competitive, but as per the TR3-4-5-6-GT6 vs. the MGB or MGBGT ...and I think my money's on the T-cars. Throw in an MGC, and perhaps we've

I don't expect I'll be the only one pointing out the obvious, but what about the MGB-GT-V8? Same fine rover engine without the silly wedge. -- Trevor Boicey, P. Eng. Ottawa, Canada, tboicey@brit.ca I

I suppose, but you can quite easily make a V8 roadster. While it isn't factory-produced, it uses all factory parts and has the benefit of being factory-designed instead of just a hack. -- Trevor Boic

At the 1992 meet at Mid-Ohio when Triumph was the featured marque, they had an all Triumph race. The Group 44 cars were there only for show, but when it came down to serious (vintage) racing, the cla

Now far be it for me to defend MG's but aren't you forgetting the MGB GT V8 which had the same V8 in it about a decade before? Also what about the MG maestro turbo? 150 bhp stock with carbs. Biggest

Just a note re: the MGC. It is NOT strictly an MGB with a Healey engine. It has a different front subframe entirely. Torsion bars instead of coil springs, tube shox instead of levers. Bigger brakes a
