Welcome to the 49th MG Car Club’s of Australia National Meeting. Let the fun begin.

The organising chairman, committee and team members have worked hard, the “Cradle Coast Group”, is probably the smallest to organise a National Meeting and it makes me proud that they and lots of our members from all over the state have volunteered to bring you a successful event.

I wonder how many of you attended the first National Meeting in Tasmania in 1976 or any of those that followed in 1984, 1992, 1998, 2006 and 2012, some wet, some dry - but I remember them all being fun. Friendships, old ones to renew and new ones to make, joint love of the marque, wind in the hair driving on our fabulous Tasmanian roads, it’ll be fun and it’s still the best thing to have!

On behalf of all members of the MGCC Tasmania it is our hope that you will take home the warm memories of friendship, excitement and fun that was Easter in Tasmania in 2018.

Welcome Message – MGCCT President

On behalf of all Tasmanian MG members and the organising committee, I would like to take this opportunity to welcome old and new friends to the 2018 MG National Meeting.

It doesn’t seem that long ago that it was decided to hold the 2018 National Meeting in Tasmania, time goes by very quickly.

By default, I became the chairperson of the organising committee, a small group of dedicated and hardworking MG enthusiasts. This will be the first time a national meeting has been held outside a major Tasmanian city, this alone has thrown out many challenges.

The 2018 meeting will cover all aspects of MG motoring, starting with our Noggin N Natter on the Friday evening where you can sample an array of local Tasmanian produce. This will be followed by a full weekend of competition and social events including a High Tea for those that don’t want to spend all day at the Concours. The weekend will wind up with a Gala Trophy Presentation Dinner on the Monday night, followed by a farewell breakfast on the Tuesday morning.

Please take the opportunity to try some of the great food and wine the region has to offer, enjoy the weekend and drive safely.

Don Fraser

CHAIRMAN 2018 National Meeting Committee

Welcome Message – 2018 NatMeet Committee Chairman

WELCOME from Councillor Jan Bonde, Mayor of Central Coast On behalf of the Central Coast community, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to the MG Car Club 2018 National Meeting. We are delighted that you have chosen to hold your event in Ulverstone and hope that you enjoy the hospitality, friendliness and natural beauty our municipal area is renowned for. Tasmania’s Central Coast spans an area of 932 square kilometres and includes Ulverstone, Penguin and many small, rural settlements dotted

throughout the countryside. We have a population of approximately 22,000 residents and Ulverstone is the State’s largest town. Approximately 93,000 residents live within a 50km radius of Ulverstone, making us most centrally located within this beautiful Cradle Coast region. Our brand is “Coast to Canyon”, in recognition of our beautiful coastline and pristine beaches, the rugged Leven Canyon and everything in between. Our Dial Range is the backdrop to rich farmland, productive valleys and the meandering Leven River. Our economy is based on agriculture and we are home to large processors such as Simplot Australia (potatoes) and Botanical Resources Australia (pyrethrum), along with innovative small producers providing berries, wines and olive oil, to name just a few. I hope during your stay you have an opportunity to sample some of our wonderful local produce. Tasmania is also renowned for its scenic coastal and country roads, and our region provides some of the best. I am sure you will enjoy the challenge of driving the undulating, winding and sometimes narrow roads and we look forward to seeing you out and about. We are extremely proud that you have chosen Central Coast as the base for your 2018 National Meeting, and I wish you all a successful and most memorable event.

Welcome Message – Central Coast Council Mayor

Events like the MG National Meeting take a considerable amount of time, effort and money to organise and run. If you, the attendee, had to pay for everything that is required to hold this event, your registration fee would be substantially more and I suspect that many of you would have to think twice about whether you would still attend due to the price. We are therefore indebted to a special group of organisations that are our Event Partners, Sponsors and Friends. These businesses have either invested substantially in our weekend, provided advertising sponsorship or have provided in kind support of our organising committee or events. If you come across one of these businesses during your stay in Tasmania, please support them as they have supported us.

1928 – 18/80 Tourer, 90 Years Produced 1928-1933 Number built - 736 cars Also known as the MG6, was the first MG to be produced with bull nosed radiator. Powered by a 2.5l, 6 cylinder o/head cam producing a whopping 50bhp. Stopping power was via a cable

operated single 12” brake drum.

1928 - M Type Midget, 90 Years Produced 1928 – 1932 Number built – 3,235 The M Type was the beginning of a long line of MG small sports cars that were to define the marque. Powered by a 850cc, o/head

cam producing 20bhp. The M Type was also the beginning of MG’s efforts into racing and modified sports versions, resulting in a win in the Double Twelve race in 1930

1938 – WA Saloon, 80 years Produced 1938 – 1939 Number built – 369 A larger and more luxurious version of the SA and VA saloons. Powered by a 3.5l, pushrod overhead valve producing 95.5bhp. The WA saloons

production life was short lived with WWII looming over Europe. But this beautiful car stands as a testament of the lucrative luxury saloon market of that time.

MG Anniversary News 2018

1958 – A Twin Cam, 60 Years Produced 1958 - 1960 Number built – 2,111 inc Coupe The MGA Twin Cam saw the return of the o/head cam on a motor developed purely for MG’s. The MGA Twin Cam also saw the return of MG to serious motorsports. It also was the first MG to be fitted with 4

1988 – Maestro Turbo, 30 years Produced October 1988 - limited run of 505 cars The Maestro Turbo was Rovers reaction to the hot hatch era. The Maestro Turbo was the standard Maestro beefed up with off the shelf turbo, drivetrain and suspension along

with bodykits and graphics by Tickfords. This hatch was initially considered too fast to be released, but after a low key release, this fastest MG ever built had a limited production run with less than 50% of these cars still in existence

2008 – TF LE500 ( N.A.C Release), 10 Years

Introduced August 2008 Number Built – limited run of 500 cars. After the demise of Rover and the acquisition of production rights to the Rover MG models, Chinese car manufacturer NAC, reintroduced the TF LE500 manufactured out of the Longbridge, UK factory.

This route will take you approx. 1 hour without stops to the coastal town of Forth – then only a small distance on to Ulverstone or Devonport. So, 1-¼ hours in total return.

John Wratten Memorial Trophy Presented as a perpetual award at the first National Meeting in Sydney in 1970, by the Sydney MG Dealer. At the second National Meeting in Melbourne in 1971, John Wratten was tragically killed in an accident at Calder in a P-Type. John was secretary of the

Medals and Trophies

Victorian Centre and one of the organisers of the National Meeting. It was unanimously agreed at the Delegates Meeting after the event that in future this MG trophy would become the John Wratten Memorial Trophy. It is presented to the Club obtaining the most points over all the four competitive events, adjusted by the “Fudge Factor”. Points will be allocated for this trophy as detailed below, regardless of class size. In the case of tied places, both competitors will receive the points applicable to that placing.

Nuffield Oceania Trophy Early in the 1950’s Lord Nuffield commissioned and presented four prestigious trophies to the MG Car Club UK so that they would recognise the achievements of the overseas centres in four separate regions. These regions were; 1. Europe 2. South Africa 3. United States 4. Oceania

The Nuffield Oceania Trophy was awarded to various Australian and New Zealand centres until 1960. In 1961 the Home Centre decided to review the award criteria but during the review period a key person left the team and the project was forgotten and the cup was placed into secure storage in Melbourne. In 1995 the combined Australian MG clubs agreed to a set of locally written rules which were then approved by Mike Hawke Chairman, and Alan Kingwell, Overseas Director of the M.G. Car Club Home Centre, while attending “MG’s Down Under” in Fremantle and the trophy was given to the Australian M.G. Car Clubs for their use.

This award is based on the Concours and Motorkhana only and each Club is represented by 2% of their nominated MG ownership numbers. A minimum of 5 and maximum of 20 shall be used for averaging. The total points scored by the Club’s 2% shall be calculated then averaged. The resultant average shall be the measure of the Club’s performance. The winner is the Club with the highest average score.

Early Period winners of the Nuffield Oceania Trophy:- 1953 NSW 1954 NSW 1955 QLD 1956 NZ 1957 NSW 1958 NSW 1959 SA 1960 VIC

Jean Kimber-Cook Perpetual Trophy for Junior Drivers Jean Kimber-Cook was in Fremantle in 1995 and presented Harry Pyle with a scale model of an M.G. TC which was mounted on a trophy to recognise the most successful Junior competing at the National Meeting. The trophy is awarded for the best score by a Junior in the Motorkhana Event. Entrants must be under 17 at 1 January 2009 and nominate their participation at time of registration.

Joan Richmond Trophy Initiated and donated by the M.G. Car Club of Victoria in 1989, this trophy is awarded to the female entrant who achieves the highest aggregate score over all competition events during the National Meeting. The trophy is named in recognition of Joan Richmond, an Australian sportswoman who achieved International recognition in motorsport and was part of the 1935 M.G. woman’s team at Le Mans.

Chris Dodds Memorial Trophy Inaugurated by a gathering of the V8 Register members at the 1982 National Meeting in Canberra the trophy was donated in recognition of Chris Dodds’ contribution to the MG marque and in particular the V8 Register. Chris passed way in December 1981 at age 28 and an annual trophy in his honour is competed for both in the UK and Australia. The Chris Dodds Trophy is awarded to the entrant with an MGB GT V8 Class scoring the highest aggregate points over the National Meeting weekend.

New Zealand Plate The New Zealand Plate was first presented at the 1977 National Meeting held in Katoomba. It was brought to Australia by a group of enthusiasts from New Zealand led by Bill and Gaye Baxter. It is awarded to the entrant with a T-Type with the best aggregate points score – Classes D,E,F and T-Types in Class X and Z.

Golden Gudgeon Trophy Instigated at the 1978 National Meeting in Perth by the Australian T Series Association, the trophy is presented to the entrant with a T-Type achieving the best aggregate score - Classes D,E,F and T-Types in Class X. Note that Class Z Super Specials are not included for this trophy.

Cecil Kimber Centennial Trophy Cecil Kimber’s daughter, Jean Kimber Cook, brought this trophy to Australia in 1988 from the M.G. Car Club in the UK. It is awarded to the individual competitor attaining the highest points in all events. All events judged equally.

The TC Owners Club Perpetual Pre-War Plate Donated by the TC Owners Club to recognise the efforts of the owner of a Pre-War MG It is awarded to the driver of the Pre-War M.G. attaining the highest point score in competition.

National Magazine Competition Trophy Donated by Gosford Shoplifters in 1982. The trophy is awarded to the Club judged to have the best magazine. Factors taken into consideration are presentation, content, cost and quantity printed.

National Website Competition The Perpetual Award is donated by the Geelong MG Car Club. Judged by an independent IT Consultant Photographic Competition Entries for this competition are displayed throughout the National Meeting weekend. Photographs are the entrant’s own work, and taken within the last two (2) years - all feature an MG theme or cars and have not been displayed at a previous National Meeting. Categories judged are:

1. Best Action photograph. 2. Best Still photograph. 3. Best Novelty photograph. 4. Best Creative digitally enhanced photograph.

A trophy for first place in each category only, will be awarded. All entries must be supplied as prints, maximum size of photograph is restricted to A4. Hard Luck Trophy Although not a perpetual trophy, it is a custom at MG National Meetings to present a small token award to a National Meeting participant who has had the misfortune to suffer a mishap on the way to the National Meeting. There have been many extraordinary tales over the years and often it is a difficult task for the host centre to decide who is the most deserving of the Hard Luck Trophy.

Fudge Factor The Fudge Factor takes into account the distance travelled by members of a Club to the National Meeting and the number of MG owning members as at 31st of December of the preceding year. MG owning membership is defined as up to three members of a family (over the age of 18 years) being attributed to one MG car. It is used in calculating the inter-centre points for the following trophies only;

· John Wratten Memorial Trophy. · TC Owners Club Perpetual Pre-War Plate. · Golden Gudgeon Trophy.

Note: Distance is calculated from the registered address of the Club to the event using the shortest route from www.whereis.com

The members of the MG Car Club of Tasmania extend a very warm thankyou to all MG’ers for choosing to visit us here on the Cradle Coast for the 2018 MG National Meeting.

We all understand the expense to travel across Bass Strait, and the commitment that has been made to come to our state for an event such as this. Many of you are staying in Tassie to tour our island or visit friends, and many are also heading back to work and commitments. If your visit is cut short, we hope that you might have the opportunity to come back and have an extended visit sometime.

As you leave we hope that you have had an enjoyable and memorable 4 days participating in the events we have organised. Our little committee has worked tirelessly to put this National Meeting on and all our efforts were for your benefit.

We also hope you take back with you some samples of our wines, seafood or produce that we are very proud of.

Safe travelling and we hope to catch up in Queensland next year for the 2019 MG National Meeting

Farewell Message

MG CAR CLUB of QUEENSLAND Inc.

GPO Box 1847

BRISBANE Qld. 4001

Invites all affiliated MG Car Clubs in Australia to come to the 50th

MG National Meeting at REDLANDS Qld.

17 to 23rd

April 2019

Come help us celebrate the 50th MG National Meeting at Redlands Queensland.

Make it a time to look back and be proud of this marvellous event’s history.

Make this 50th MG National Meeting, the Golden Jubilee National Meeting, be the

one where you come and renew old friendships, make new ones and remember all the good times.

Set on the shores of Moreton Bay, with the events focused around the small town of Cleveland in the Redland City Council area, you can be assured of a warm welcome. Adjacent to this are the Brisbane bay-side suburbs of Manly and Wynnum.

Redlands is the gateway to a unique and historical number of islands, one of which is North Stradbroke with its surf beaches, rocky headlands and sand dunes. Plan a holiday in this area as it has much to offer. You can be as layback or energetic as you like on your holiday. The area is within easy reach also of the Theme Parks like Wet-n-Wild, Movie World, Dream World and the Outback Spectacular, so bring the family

These meetings have evolved over the years from a Natter & Noggin, Concours, Hillclimb, dirt circuit Sprint, and Dinner to what they are today. We will include all the traditional events and functions at our 50

th National Meeting.

To help celebrate 50 years of these fabulous meetings we envisage a display, of photographs on a time line of people with their cars who have attended the National Meetings over the decades. We suggest you start looking for suitable photos now. We are sure it will bring back many marvellous memories.

A fabulous fiftieth, fun filled, MG long week-end awaits you at Redlands in 2019
