Have you flogged your MG Today?

I did! What a wonderful day! 70º and took the MG out for decent run. Revved the living snot out of her and she loved every minute of it. First real top down run since November. I'm really looking forward to the spring.
 
Not 70° (more like 65°) and the top not down, but the side curtains off - covered nearly 100 miles in the TD at 4200 rpm under clear skies with Mt. Ranier visible going and the snow capped Olympic mountains as a backdrop on our return. Does that count?
Cheers,

Absolfreakinlutely! Can't wait to get the TD going Dave. I'm in the garage now ripping the wiring out and thinking of my next move.

Supposed to be chillier tomorrow and then a few days of rain Mon/Tu. Ick! Better get the top back up.
 
I need a battery for the MGB then I'm going to do that myself. Ended up spending half the day working on the Miata.
 
My B is still stashed away in its Winter storage. I'm hoping to get it out next week, but I'd like to change all the fluids before driving it too much.

I *did* take the Bizzaks off the Miata (replaced with soft-compound, Hankook dry-weather tires). Then I took it out and thrashed it for about 200 miles top-down, (but I know that doesn't really count here). :laugh:

Weather is great here in northwest NJ.....perfect for sports car driving.

Here's #1 grandaughter and grandma out driving the "MG" yesterday (that's what grandaughter call it).

I had mine out this weekend a couple of times. That's me between the 1924 Rolls Royce and the white minivan.

I gotta say it...And the Jag and the Triumph are left to park in the street, where they belong! sorry...I couldn't resist :devilgrin:
 
High is going to be 74 today! We're taking the B to work.
Chance to see if the new wood gear knob makes it faster.
