DESCRIPTION:
Go for action in the MGB. The MGB photographed at high speed in the Moss corner at Canada
’
s famous Mosport Track.
Hairpin turn. Needle at 65. Now, watch how beautifully the MGB holds the track!
Read how the MGB can outperform bigger, costlier sports cars… with power and handling qualities perfected through 35 years of international racing experience.
Racing speed through a tight turn. Here's where a sports car really shows its breeding . . . and the MGB performed like a champion when put to this challenging test.
A high-speed camera was set up at the tricky Moss corner at Canada's Mosport track. A competition driver took the MGB's wheel. Down the chute at 95. Gear down. Hard on the brakes, then in and through the hairpin at 65. Look at the picture ... in a perfectly controlled drift, the MGB held the track beautifully right through the turn! How can the MGB gun through a corner that slows bigger, heavier cars down to a walk by comparison?
BMC does it with the perfect combination of top performance features — an engineer's dream come true. Rack-and-pinion steering is firm and sure. Disc
brakes give you straight, fade-free braking. The close-ratio gearbox uses engine power to fullest possible advantage. If you can find a sports car with performance features to equal the MGB's, go buy it... but be prepared to pay hundreds of dollars more!
Ask your MG Dealer for a Demonstration — You'll go for everything about the MGB ... its twin-carb 1798 c.c. powerplant, the snug roll-up windows, the generous trunk space. And best of all, its performance, the result of 35 years of championship breeding! Price and drive the MGB at your MG dealer's soon. You'll agree ... nobody puts more into car-making than BMC.

Keep it bright - it deserves that.
Wear it modestly - it speaks for itself.
The medallion rewards MGB’s overall win in the Grand Touring Category in the 1964 Monte Carlo Rally. It can be mounted on every new MGB — standard equipment, you might say. And deservedly: You too, can command the 1798 c.c. engine that put-down Ford Falcons, Plymouth Valiants, Porsches, Triumphs and Alfa Romeos (among others). It turns up road speeds in excess of 105 mph without breathing hard.
You can experience the G.T. dependability of race-tested nonfade disc brakes, the extraordinary control of rack and pinion steering (3 turns lock-to-lock) and the instant reflexes of twin carbs and 4-speed gear box.
You can enjoy such amenities as contoured bucket seats upholstered in English leather, stowaway convertible top, padded dash... plus the other refinements which make the Grand Touring car
the most luxurious machine in fast motoring.
Getting back to that medallion, read it now and then: “1964 GT Winner Rallye Monte-Carlo.” Quickens the pulse.
Boosts the ego.

SEBRING 65 (OR SOMETIMES IT RAINS WHEN YOU’RE OUT DRIVING)
5:25 p.m. Saturday, Mar. 27th, the race is 7 hrs. 25 mins, old, MG and Austin Healey have the situation well in hand.
Sprite is running 1-2 in its class.
MGB #49 is outfooting everything in its class except the factory-prepared, bigger-engined Porsche. Both #49 and its running mate #48 are well ahead of TR-4 and a couple of XKE's.
MG Midget is beating the whitewalls off of Spitfire... and all other runners in its class.
Austin Healey 3000 has its field to itself.
5:30p.m. Rain: close to 45 minutes of the heaviest downpour since the Ark. ("So much water was coming in the cockpit it got up to my chest,” says Chaparral surfer Hap Sharp later.) Some machines slow to 6 mph. Others quit entirely.
MG and Austin Healey have the situation well in hand.
Sprite is running 1-2 in its class.

(Aficionados will be interested in this “race within a race.” Some lap times are included below. Incidentally, the loudest cheers of the day—and night—greeted our 1292 cc Sprite, as it took a Chaparral and a Ferrari on the pit straight.)
10:00 p.m. Darkness. Water has been spun off the track. Chequered flags slash the night.

Sprite finishes 1-2 in its class.

MG Midget beats the whitewalls off of Spitfire...and all other runners in its class.
Austin Healey 3000 makes its point: first in its GT class, 17th overall.
The order of finish? We publish it below. You will see that 6 of the 7 BMC cars entered finished. You will note that they took away 3 class firsts and 2 seconds.
The moral? Actually, there are two: 1. Chaparral is a fine racing machine which can go very fast—when it doesn't rain. 2. MG and Austin Healey runners are so much more than temperamental fair-weather track cars: they're tough, talented, allround performers, bred to road or race course, to shine or rain.
