MG Midget and Sprite General - Bridesmaid again

Report on the New South Wales Hillclimb Championship round 3 at Mt Panorama Bathurst:
http://hillclimbnsw.com/r3.html
It was a fabulous weekend on a circuit to die for, and on our 3rd run there was only 0.3 sec between the three of us. At least we managed to put the MGB where MGB's belong.
Weekend after next is a 50 mile race for me at Eastern Creek circuit, western Sydney. I'll need to stop for a nap about half way through.

Hey Mike, what size wheels have you got on that SWA? They look wide.

They are 5.5" Minators for splined hubs carrying Kuhmo V70A tyres. Wheels soon to be replaced as they bring a 9kg penalty in unsprung weight. The tyres don't rub anywhere and the guards haven't been rolled. These are the biggest & best tyres I can run under the regs for historic cars, and take a bit of getting used to after the 8" slicks on the old car.

Thanks Mike, I was unaware you could fit 5.5's under a SWA without some mods. I have 13"x5" centre lock minators with 175x70x13's.
