Chicagoland MG Club: Driveline July 2017
Feature Event

(Continued from page 12)


Scott drove the fastest and slowest MGs of the weekend. Here he is in the MGB that was on the pole and won every race in its class, that I saw over the two days that I was there. His 1932 J2 in Group 1 could, obviously, not compete with the much faster MGs in Group 1.

Cowboy's MGB suffered from overheating on Friday. After he replaced the head gasket things went better but the engine was still a little low on power.





There were too many interesting cars to take pictures of and tell about. This is a late 30’s IndyCar, that raced in the famous Memorial Day Indy 500 a few times. The car was so much faster than anything else in Group 1 that driver Rex Barrett lapped slower cars several times within a 15-minute race session. The car has another soup-can sized exhaust pipe on the other side and it makes a beautiful, deep thundering sound when it goes around the track.
