I have both an MGB GT and an AH 3000.  No question the MGB handles better
and seems (I am no expert, just an observer) to hold the road better.

Hello Marty,

I am a happy owner of a BN2, am not a great expert on torsional rigidity,
but could you name some cars of the era that had better torsional rigidity?

Why do you say the Healey ladder design has the "poorest road handling
design"?

After all, it's not quite a ladder design with the X brace in the middle.
