The time has to update the club roster. We would very much like every one of you to go to the roster and verify your information: go to the club website, then click "Members and All." There you will see "Club Roster". You will need the password from the latest Driveline -- the user name is always "member" (case sensitive).
If you have any changes / corrections / additions to the information, please forward that on to the Membership Chair, Victor L’Heureux at secretary@chicagolandmgclub.com

From Cowboy Bralich --
Odometer Readings Wanted
Help me come up with some fun driving statistics. In so doing I will award someone with some kind of prize. Using the Spring Tune-up and then the Fall Tune-down as the begin-ning and ending of our 2010 driving season. I would like each of you to go out to your MG and write down the odometer read-ing and date. Then mail, E-mail, call, or hand me the number along your name, and MG model (T, A, B, midget…) and year. Mine is a 67-B with reading of 106077. Then again in November, I want you to do it all over again. With this data I will compile some fun facts: 1) The Average number of miles driven per day.
2) The average total miles driven within the driving season. 3) The mid-point (average) between the highest number of miles and the lowest number among all participants.
Like me, there is nothing normal about how I will pick the award winner. I am currently looking at finding the car/individual that comes closest to the number 2 above. Using that target, the person with the most miles (as well as the person with the least) will help determine the winner, but will not be the winner.
I currently have 20 member‘s data from the Spring Tune-up and a few from other dates. I would like to have eve-ryone who drives their MG to be part of the stats. Come on and take the few seconds and get me to the starting point.
