I like classic cars and although it is a shame to see such a pretty car get bashed, it's your property for you to do what you want with and racing it, as someone else has said on here, is better than it gathering dust and rotting.
I used to have a 1972 MGBGT and I got abuse from people for making it my everyday car, doing things like making it take unleaded, removing overriders, changing the interior and even making it more reliable by moving the battery into the engine bay eliminating the need for the 2 x 6V batts under the rear seat! It still looked very much original but enthusiasts weren't keen.
There will always be people who disagree with your decisions but as long as you enjoy it that's what matters, I certainly enjoyed my MG!
Cheers,
Dan
p.s. I like the colour!
