Re: Centenary Race - the Tucker Trophy

Guy, thank you too for organising the race. I had a great time, as I'm sure the others did too. There's not many opportunities for the historic Morgans to all race together so for me it's a nice change. I'd certainly like to do it again next year, especially if by 'longer race' you can get us on the...

Hi All, I'm trying to see if I can get an entry in the 'Pre-'63 GT' event at this years Silverstone Classic (24-26th July) but I would need to run on wheels as originally homologated on the Super Sports. Does anyone have a set, or know of someone who has a set, who might be willing to let me beg/bor...

Re: HSCC - Silverstone (National) 18th Oct

This'll not come as a surprise, but once again I have been let down and have had to pull out of tomorrows race. Mark H - your comments about TR engine building at Silverstone in May have proven to be very pertitnent. Anyway hope you all have a great last HSCC race for the year.

regards,

Happy Days! ...

Hopefully FOJ will be back on the road by then. I have an entry I'm told, and really looking forward to getting out again. :D
