Great Big New Huffaker MGB Article!

I'm pleased to announce a new feature article about Don Dickey's Red Huffaker #10 MGB

I personally think this car is the most interesting of the Huffaker MGBs. What makes it special is that it was actually built by a gifted independent racer who was friendly with the Huffaker Engineering team and their drivers. His name was Dwayne Anderson, and he was evidently as good with a wrench and a torch as he was hitting apexes. Anderson used a whole bunch of original Huffaker parts and he put them together so well that Huffaker Engineering didn't hesitate to adopt the car and take it to the SCCA Championship "Runoffs", where Lee Mueller drove it to a second place finish. I don't know if that story has ever been told in a magazine, but you'll find it in much more color and detail on BritishRaceCar.com.
