Is anyone planning to participate in motorsports events beyond the odd track day?
If so what events would a MTW be actually eligible to enter?

I thought that the factory were sponsoring a 3W race series?
Maybe I dreamed it.

Just reading the Chairman's bit in 'The Bulletin' Dave and apparently the factory pulled out of providing any sponsorship for a competition series.
The modern 3W has too large an engine for ACU competitions. It may be eligible to enter sprints / hillclimbs under MSA rules as far as I can see, plus car trials...

Cheers, Oops!! That's yet another reason they should have gone with a different engine.

As far as I know, the MSA won't accept it, wrong number of wheels! The period exemption that some Morgans have, I think, has a cut off date of 1934. I believe however the ACU will accept it for straight line sprints, but not races, twisty sprints or hillclimbs. (I think this was in the Bulletin).

You mean something that looks like this (but with a motor out the front)
