>>> what in the heck does RWA stand for??

Jim,
RWA stands for Round Wheel Arch and refers to the bodywork at the rear 
wheels. The Bugeye could be called an RWA, but the only "box Spridgets" that 
are RWA are the 72-74 model years (started in late 71, lasted until the 
rubber bumpers). Therefore the Sprite had RWA for about three years when 
there was no Midget equivalent and the Midget had RWA for about three years 
when there were no more Sprites being made. Poetic justice, I suppose.

I imagine this is one of the reasons that Bugeyes tend to show up in vintage 
racing so much (goodness knows it ISN'T the raw power), since RWA means more 
leeway in tire choices. I suppose WST will chime in with a better reason (it 
is really because vintage racing is just an excuse to indulge their love of 
Bugeyes)...
