Hey Guys,

How about posting some of your photos video of your Alfa's in motorsport events??

Here's a video of my wife tearing around Philip Island in her modified Alfa....she's only 3 seconds slower than me!!

Not bad for a nearly stock standard Alfa Sedan...it's a 86 Guillietta and this car has heart!! The driver is as mad as!!

Hope you enjoy it and for those who don't drive their cars spiritedly hope this inspires you too!

With who Batman????? Spit it out....

Hey Guys. Great video. Mrs Spannerman, your awesome! Do you think you can come and have a word with my better half?

I was wondering how hard you could go over that crest into the hairpin. About that, eh! Nice work!

Keep it up.

Lukey heights is fairly hard in fourth gear, about 160kmh. You dont want anything going wrong there.
Throw her the keys and tell her theres no way she could go any faster, that'll get her going.

Your 3 seconds is going to be looking a little shakey spannerman!

She wont blow past a 16V Boxer like she dusts off the 8valver at the end there!
