This Trophy is made from a 1:18 scale model MGF and is named after Brian Griffin, the chief mechanic on the MGF. It was first awarded in 2008 and is given to a person who epitomises the essence of competition with their MGF/TF.
The award covers any form of competition from motor racing to Pride of Ownership, naviscats and treasure hunts. In fact, anything you can compete in with (or in connection with) your MGF/TF.
