Jim, good talking to you again, next call we need more time to talk racing I really like the moniker of the "Little team that could" The Alfa was always the "underdog" to the well funded Porsche 356 "Factory cars" in vintage racing Trust me I think some of these guy's spent more on tires then I spent on my motor. Just remember the driver is 75%, car is still only 25%. And HP is only 25% & handling, brakes is 75%. That's the formula I used to beat the DAMN 356's. Besides at the end of the day, the prize money was the same for 10th as 1st place Placing the race car in the trailer unscathed at the end of the weekend was my greatest reward. Cheers Tom.
