[Spridgets] Boot lid spoiler update

[WeslakeMonza1330 at aol.com]

Hi List,
 
I'd planned to put the new boot lid and spoiler in the  boot when taking it 
to the paint shop but since it wouldn't fit (even with  the spare wheel 
removed) I had to fit it to the car last night and put the  original boot lid 
in the boot and swap them over at the paint shop. So  unexpectedly the 
spoiler had its first road test earlier yesterday. I'd  also fitted the 2nd grille 
blanking device. At motorway cruising speeds it  felt like I was on a 
lighter/smaller throttle opening than I'm used to. At  higher speeds (!) there 
was no longer any pitching down or nose down  attitude of the car (that I 
could notice). The engine pulled well and for  longer up to the point where I 
have to sit and wait and watch the tacho  than was previously the case and 
then climbed that little bit higher than  it did before (other than on down 
hill stretches). Engine temps were much  the same if not the same as without 
the 2nd blanking plate and at times it  was a fairly warm day. I'm hoping the 
new painted boot lid and spoiler  will be on the car before the MG Car Club 
meeting at Silverstone.   Safe to mention here the number one twenty two? 
Regards 
Daniel
