I guess the tweed hat guys got outvoted

Yesterday I had to get out in the Austin.  Summer's almost gone.  So I went to a local car show put on by the Western NY MG club.  Good guys and a well run show.  Probably 50% Brit cars, 20% other foreign, and the rest U.S.  This show has been going on a long time, and back 45 years ago (yeah I'm that old) it was pretty stuffy.  Not so much anymore.  I was in the Sprite/Midget class and there's the Austin with a V6 crammed into it sitting with about a dozen well preserved/restored Spridgets, and it got voted best of its class.  I guess the tweed hat suede leather elbow patch pipe smoking sit around quaffing snifters of Hennessey after a chukker of polo guys got outvoted.  There was also a guy there (Jake from Watkins Glen) who had a gorgeous 348 stroker powered B in the chrome bumper B class.  In solidarity with BV8s I voted for him.
