The event in Washington went well. The MGF ran like a top and the weather improved from a light drizzle at home
to blazing sunshine in Seattle. The Americans loved the MGF, which still isn't eligible for import there. Many had never seen one before.
I did meet a Brit expat MGA owner who had bought an F new in the UK but couldn't import it into the US when he immigrated. He enjoyed seeing one again.
The car was such a hit I got 3rd place in the V8 and Modified class even though my car is neither!
To top it off the Casino/Hotel was very nice and Mrs. RiV didn't lose our collective shirts in the casino.
The MGF on the show field
Apparently this Mini is road legal! (No MOT test here!)
And, just for fun here is a sign that was in our hotel
(And this is in a Democrat state!)
