1961 MG Midget

This car took part in the 20 minute long Equipe GTS Series race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2001.
It's Richard McKoen's 1961 MG Midget, one of the 25,681 that were produced between 1961 and 1964. The MG Midget was a badge-engineered version of the Austin Healey Sprite, albeit with a different front end which didn't feature the famous 'frogeye' headlights. The 1961 model had a 4-cylinder inline 948cc BMC A-Series engine, although Richard McKoen's car has the 1,098cc engine that was not introduced until 1962.
