Some in-car video of the GTV6 from the weekend.  Unfortunately after this stage the heavens opened and dumped 60 mm of rain which forced the organisers to curtail the rally.  So we didn't get any more running in.  But in the rain we set some almost competitive times.  Pretty happy now with suspension and brakes on car.  Driver has a lot of work to do.  The car is running standard GTV6 transaxle and 2.5 V6 with a Haltech and 133HP at the rear wheels.  It is becoming a little frustrating though how that combination does not seem to want to climb hills in third gear.  I can wring it out in second and then it just lugs up the hill in third.  I need to investigate the whole TS transaxle thing with better ratios and a lower 3rd gear, and/or more power.

I know that a giulietta 1.6 has a short gearbox compared to other alfa transaxles. Might be the sane box as the 75's.
