  • SweatFest!

    Compared to the past two years, 2018’s annual July SweatFest in John Lamberg’s backyard wasn’t too hot nor too humid.   Good turnout, good assortment of cars and a pretty involved business meeting, with much event planning for the latter part of the year.

  • The Field of Friendly Competition

    Apparently this is my morning to get caught up, with a few quick ones. For starters, 15 July’s Boeing Sports Car Club autocross (fifth event of the season) which included competition by four LBC owners. Probably chief among the pack was Dave Massey, who returned with his recently rebuilt/reassembled TR6. Lee Fox in his MGB

Note the GT6

  • Enough Already…

    Hmmm…it might be time to lock up the auto stylists (the amazing thing is someone actually bought one of these CH-Rs, the biggest leap forward in automotive design since the Pontiac Aztek).

  • Cars As…Birthday Cards?

    Sighted yesterday (Tues 24 Apr) at Scott AFB. Yes, the owner was rather startled when he showed up…and yes, those are balloons filling the passenger compartment.

  • Forest Park ’18

    Dang, those crafty, wiley MG club, er, folks pulled it off again: at the 9th edition of the Triumph-MG Challenge for the British Leyland Participation Trophy, they beat us handily, putting 27 of the Morris Garages products on the field of valor vice 16 Triumphs and one Morgan +4.  Sigh… Not to make excuses, but
