Time for this slack jawed American to show his ignorance. What do you mean
unmutual? Did you mean you wanted the website?

My statements about the cars meant I thought that MGs are worth too much to
race them* and that a 510 could only produce a good speed when dropped out
of an airplane. The 510 didn't become the 240 did it? And if it did then it
would be worth too much to race.

* I know amateurs race expensive cars all the time, and the MG isn't really
that expensive. It's not like it's a Ferrari racing through the trees.
