It was very satisfying to drive onto the show field. THere is no better way to make an entrance than in a classic MGTC.
Oh by the way this year we won 2nd place in class. To be fair there were not many cars in the pre-war and MGTC class, but we did beat other cars for the win.

In any case I plan to begin this repair soon so it is ready for the new driving season. I also want to convert the brake system over to silicon brake fluid, so I may take that as an opportunity to replace the slave and master cylinders with new ones. We will see.

As luck would have it we selected Salisbury Plain for out meeting place. However we could not find Stonehenge.

TO test the car I took it out for a drive last night. The air temprature was 98 degrees. Even in the shade it was hot.
I could not believe it. The temp never rose above the center of the normal range on my Boyce temp guage. In the past I would not even think about starting the car on a day that hot, let alone take it for a 12 mile drive. I had to stop at three traffic lights for an extended period and the car still did not over heat. So I am now confident that the general heating problem is solved.
This leavs only the heat getting to the carbs and vaporlocking the system to work on. And I think I have the solution of the as well. We will soon know.

Both cars performed very well, and my wife enjoyed having the opportunity to drive the Sprite on a nice day trip.
