dretceterini,
Here's what I intend as a reasoned response:
You have had bad experiences with Alfa clubs, are unhappy with Alfa clubs, and included this in your post; which you are priviledged to do. However, I think you are painting the Alfa club community with too broad a brush. I acknowledge your dissatisfaction, and whatever circumstances brought it about, but suggest that is in the past and there may be benefits for
others to participate in the Alfa club "world".
My proposal was for Alfa owners or enthusiasts to consider joining a club or chapter of their choice and hopefully provide a general strengthening of Alfa Romeo in the U.S.
BTW, Pat's books are for sale on the AROC website, and his widow was a guest at the Seattle convention...

We are setting up an sports car club here in Salt Lake City, Utah. Many of the members so far are Alfa people.
