Re: MGB - the greatest sportscar of all time?



Here's a little anecdote that might shed some light on the greatness of the MGB as a sports car.

My father was a UPS man, and a Corvette man. He had a 63' and a top of the line '66 Stingray, 427cuin monster. A friend of his bought an MGB and was getting to be a bit overbearing about how good of a car it was.

My father challenged him to a race (1/4 mile)... Not in the Corvette, but in his UPS delivery truck. The UPS truck crossed the line first and the MGB issue was settled for all who were present.
