Just wondering who is interested, Sprint and Alfa Racing.
Great chance to give your Alfa a run on a technical track which challenges the driver in all of us.
Even a bog standard 156 or 147 does pretty well and loads of fun, ask me how much fun I had.  Not a lot of money or prep needed and you are away and flying.

We'll be there - not to be missed!

Hope to have the 75 on the track for a bit of chassis / suspension development - just need to persuade the driver to take it easy!

Lots of track time at a great venue............and good food!

Entry for the 75 is sorted.  Driver given VERY explicit instructions re looking after the old girl.

Seems the PAB has also entered!  Love the look and sound of that red Giulietta QV at full noise!

Should be a great day.  Well worth a visit!

Getting a reasonable entry field but more the merrier.  Great opportunity for any new drivers, ladies or junior drivers welcome, we will be happy to help with instructions and training.  Loads of track time, I will guarantee you will run out of fuel and energy before the day ends.
Winton is a fantastic track, a driver's track.

Ok blokes,


My car survived a good beating at Sandown over 3 days of racing so will be racing in Alfa Racing after a quick service and check over this week.

I would expect Bruno and Evan and Ray to be the same.


So what are the rest of you racing blokes doing?


Neil

I won't be there this time sorry.

But the plan is to do every racing event next year.

Reasonable field for Alfa Racing, three four cars doing back to back weekend racing, well done on the turn around.


Actually a massive field of Alfa's overall, 30 Alfa's including the racing group.


As mentioned, weather is great, probably a bit too warm.


Who's coming.

A very entertaining day at Winton, which certainly delivered with regard to the promise of "loads of track time". Great to see a large contingent of Alfa's entered, and the start of the Alfa races was sensational to see and hear - especially for the Bussoholics.

Many thanks to team Alfa for organising and running the day.
