Only a handful of places left, so best to be quick, you will disappoint yourself if you delay.
I can bet it will be full very very soon.

Absolute full field with over 42 Alfa racers competing.  Some excellently prepared Alfa's, a full range of racing Alfa's represented including some modern ones and lots of classics.  Group S and a couple Targa Alfa's.
Weather is looking fine, not too warm, dry and perfect conditions for racing.
So cruise on down for a look, lunch and catch up with the racing members.
Racing begins at 9am

Being the father of a competitor in this event and an official gives you a unique perspective. 

We (AROCA) should feel very proud again on the way we organise and run these events. 
Phillip Island hosts rounds of the Super Bikes and Moto GP.  With a little bit of work it could also host F1.  AROCA ran a very successful Sprint Meeting at the "Island".  Maybe the perfect weather had something to do with it, but where else and when can you have the opportunity to safely explore the limits of your Alfa (and your ability!) at such an internationally recognised track.

Talking with organisers, officials and competitors - all where unanimous in their appreciation of a professionally operated sprint meeting.

Phillip Island and AROCA were at their best!

Well done Neil!

Yes, what a fantastic event.

Neil sure does know how to order some fine track weather.

Big thanks to all the officials for the day.
