MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Aldon Shoot-Out

From Dennis Wharf - Aldon Shoot-Out

"I intend running another Aldon Shoot Out this year, the date being Saturday 8th November. Like previous years numbers are limited to ten cars on a first come first served basis. Its a very low key informal affair, but full of interest.

I don't think in the past (this is the sixth year running) we've ever had a bog standard car appear, so all of you with non-modified examples take note, for I'm sure you would benefit just as much as the modified guys from a check of fuelling and ignition timing.

As always, meet about 8.30/9.00am, bacon butty lady will appear around 11.30/12.00 noon, and the cost just £25.00 for a power plot, and £40.00 for the more popular full check and plot - incredible value.

Email me to book your slot: dennis.wharf@btinternet.com"

I'd just add: this is a great day out - meet like-minded midget enthusiasts and have the opportunity to have your fuel and ignition optimised by experts. It's certain that every car will be improved; torque, smoothness, fuel consumption. I'm on standby to help with the Emerald-powered KSeries cars if needed - and update your map and send to you a few days later. Points&carbs Midgets benefit too - so bring along your ASeries or Triumph-engined Midget.

BTW - it's called a shoot-out, but there is no competition; Midgets with 50bhp are as welcome as those with 200+.

I can't think of a better way to spend £40 on any car.
