"The sleek MGA introduced for 1956 brought MG into the modern era. It was wildly successful in the marketplace, but less so on the track due to its weight and modest power. The double-overhead cam MGA Twin Cam was intended to change all that. With 108 horsepower and disc brakes all around, it was much faster, but still faced tough competition from Alfa Romeo and Porsche." -- Simeone Automotive Museum
