Thumbs up Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car

The March edition of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car has a fun article: "Performance Builder's Guide: Alfa Romeo GT Jr./Giulia Super" featuring Alfa BB's Rimicci brothers.

The #681 GT Jr. is getting to be a celebrity! It also looks sharp in the latest Nitto racing tire ad.

I got my copy of the mag. My kids were stoked to see Fabrizio and Anthony in the magazine and I was stoked to finally learn what he has inside that motor.

Congratulations Fabrizio and Anthony - its a great piece and some excellent coverage for our mark.

Classic Motorsport magazine has also got a GTV project that they have turned into a racer.

All of this publicity can only elevate the status of our cars to its rightful position - at the top. Hopefully this will also impact the desireability and value.

Again, well done!

Congrats. Very fun and informative. Can you guys put all the mods in my Junior Z?

Hemmings seems to have a soft spot for members on this board: Adan, Randy, Anthony and more coming ...

Awesome!!! Great article, congrats to both of you!!!
Just goes to show you how two hardwroking young guys can revitalize and live the Alfa dream! Just a great story.
I have a feeling that no matter how old they get you will see them out there racing Alfa's on the track. When it is in the blood it is there for life!

Fantastico!
