While we are exploring how far we can go and still pretend to call the
car MG...
The fastest bugeye Sprite on our track (and 'almost' the fastest car out
there - he is now getting beaten by one other) bears some resemblance to
a Sprite and even gets called a Sprite MkII. But...
It is super lightened. Runs very wide slick tyres. And is powered by a
turbocharged Mazda rotary engine.
Check it out here and tell me if it is like many Sprites you know.

The video's were taken at the Sprite National Meeting held last year in
my State of South Australia and even feature a few great movies of
sometime list member Mike Gigante in his Midget. You can see a few runs
of what we call a motorkhana.
Enjoy!
