Introducing<br />

Our<br />

Michael A. Lewis Gretna, LA<br />

About myself & my MGs:<br />

I am an MGT (& Y-type) enthusiast for over 30<br />

years. Formed the Mardi Gras T’s MG Club, a<br />

chapter of the New England MGT Register over<br />

27 years ago. I was a past president and then editor<br />

(for over 20 years). Now just the self proclaimed<br />

Tech Opinionate. I have restored several<br />

MGTs, Vintage raced with the SVRA & past<br />

member of the <strong>MGVR</strong> for about 10-12years. My<br />

SVRA competition license was reinstalled this<br />

year. I have tunnel vision, and my mind & heart<br />

only see old MGTs, Y-types, and MGT specials. I<br />

enjoy the camaraderie of Vintage racing & British<br />

car enthusiasts. I currently participate in MGT<br />

club events, drive my MGY-Type (Supercharged),<br />

provide technical opinions and assistance to club<br />

members in maintaining & repairing their MGTs,<br />

and dream of Vintage Racing. One of my personal<br />

accomplishments I am very proud of was getting<br />

Manley Ford into Vintage Racing, he said he was<br />

my protégé’. Now I strive to be his protégé’ and<br />

I’m still honored by his<br />

complement.<br />

(Editor’s Note: Michael<br />

Lewis is back from a<br />

long absence as a subscriber.<br />

I have yet to<br />

meet Mike face to face,<br />

but I enjoyed his excellent<br />

technical article on<br />

cylinder head mods . He<br />

was also kind enough to<br />

dice with me briefly at<br />

the Mitty in Manley<br />

Ford’s TF before pulling<br />

away . Welcome back,<br />

Mike!)<br />
