History of Car and any work or modifications carried out:
The car was rebuilt as a competition car mid 2000s to compete in the MGCC Luffield Speed Championship. It was built for the standard roadgoing class so apart from having Bumpers removed to save weight most modifications are for safety including a full Roll Cage, Race Seat and Harness. Having bought the car in spring 2012 I've continued to campaign in the Speed Championship picking up 2 class wins and this year also picking up the Midget Register Trophy. It wouldbe great to see a few more spridgets join in the championship, so if you're interested find out more at http://www.mg-cars.org.uk/mgccsc/  
Away from the track it's my daily driver in the summer and certainly makes the commute to work a lot more fun.
