Rotary Powered MG Midget Built for Autocross

This 1978 MG Midget has massive box flares, a rotary engine and a custom suspension. It can autocross nearly as fast as a Porsche Cayman GT4.

I love it!! I autocrossed a bridge-ported13B powered Spitfire in XP until I decided to strip it down, media blast it and rebuild it properly for road course, hillclimb and autoX. See you in a few years hahahaha

[@tonygruber7665]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing.

Looks like great fun!!! Just an observation. Bet you would be even quicker with the steering wheel slightly bigger and an inch or so farther away. You look cramped.

I have a bugeye sprite with an sbc 383ci It's more a cruiser than a race car

“The headlights and taillights are still Lucas.” Ok, so we know the headlights and taillights don’t work. I bet once people find out it’s a rotary they ask if the smoke they’re seeing is from running 50:1 premix, but in reality it’s the wiring for the lights.
