Yes the Tuers are well known Hillclimbers/Sprinters - the car is well stripped back to basics - and can Bill drive - wow!!! The front tyres look like very soft/sticky bike tyres. That rev counter needle was well over 12 o'clock for long sections - respect!

News posted on the MTWC site.... "Sunday was cloudy with a spot of rain at the top for the final run. We had all been doing final fettling and expected to knock a few seconds off our Saturday times. Bill went off the start like a rocket but never made the top crashing at the last hairpin while well ahead of the time he needed to break the record. Both Bill and Maggie escaped with minor injuries; the car has some serious drivers side suspension/body damage. This left Sue to take the Morgan honours with 14.17. The overall result was both times added together and Sue had the 3rd fastest time behind an ERA and a Talbot Lago GP car. Bill still had the fastest time of the weekend for a single run and Pete knocked half a minute off his first time in the F-Type with 16.32 to come 4th behind Rolf and Kurt. All the Morgans in Competition Class went up faster than much of the field of prewar sports/racing cars but that’s what people have come to see."
