This year it was actually a little on the low side... One of the local
clubs hosted the GoF West so I didn't have to far to go this year. I've
driven (not trailered) the TF to them the last 5 Years. In fact at Ventura
I got the long distance award for a T series. I was also in mechanical hell
this summer.... two motors went in the toilet. The B (what can you expect
for $1500 car) died coming back from newport (home of kieko), and the cam
on the A decided it was going to self destruct on the way back from
Roseburg. Ran several ralleys, a couple of autocrosses (you should try one
in a TF with 15 year old tires). I hosted a winery tour down in the valley,
and used one of the MG on most of the planning runs.

Sounds about right...

>in 10 different States

Sorry I can't compete with the number of states. They just tend to be a
little on the wimpy side (size wise) on your end of the country. :)=

>Are you a driver or just sitting idle blowing smoke out your pipes.

So yes I do drive my cars! I don't have time for garage queens and I don't
have a mantel that's big enough to put one of them on.
