No. The MGA Research Center was built by American Motors as a
proving ground. Burlington Wisconsin is not that far from Kenosha,
where their factory was.
I do not know when it was named MGA nor what MGA stands for.
In any case, the only part of this large facility I have driven is
the skid pad area, which is a rectangle big enough for a decent-size
autocross. The autocross for the 2002 Lotus Owners Gathering was
there, with the assistance of the Salt Creek club. I thought is was
a dandy place to autocross, but in more recent years some folks have
told me it eats tires.
