Concours/Pride of Ownership on Sunday 24th June 2012
Entries have been strong for the 2012 MGLive! Concours and Pride of Ownership, however rgw organiser, Dave Tynan, says "we are still short of judges for the event and are appealing for volunteers from each Register. Obviously it would be helpful if we could have a representative from each Register so every model of MG is covered." If you would be willing to assist, or might know someone who is, please contact Dave Tynan by email or the V8 Chairman, Jim Gibson. More on Concours
MGLive! Autosolo Sunday 24th June 2912
The inaugural staging of the MGLive! Autosolo will take place on Sunday morning and the organisers are hopeful this will become a regular feature of the MGLive! weekend . Paul Hancock, clerk of the course, would like to spread the word about this new event and encourage the Centres, Registers and Branches within the Club to remind everyone that the event is taking place.

What is an autosolo?
For those who may not be familiar with Autosolos they are open to every type of car so long as it is road legal. The event format consists of a number of driving tests about a minute long around a tarmac car park driving between cones in similar fashion to a skier ‘s slalom or dressage .There is no reversing and the tests have marker cones to point the way. A comprehensive overview of the sport from Paul Hancock and fellow competitor, Ian Webb, appeared in the February 2012 issue of Safety Fast .The MGLive! website has an Autosolo link for further information. If in doubt come and give it a go! Paul Hancock and his team
look forward to seeing you on the day.
