Track day report from Giulietta Sprint owner Marc in Mass, photo’s were taken by Jim Dyer, captions are mine: ” The 2011 Fall Finale vintage race the last racing event organized by the VSCCA and was held at Lime Rock Track October 14 and 15. The weather cooperated and the participants were graced by sunshine \u00a0and an almost dry track as rain was only sporadic. A strong number of Alfisti showed up and so the organizers were able to add an extra 15 lap session on the Friday for Alfas only! 8 Spiders (2 Veloces) ranging from 1956 to 1959, 2 Sprints (1 gorgeous red Veloce in period livery) and a delightful 1960 Sprint Zagato piloted by Sandra McNeil. Added \u00a0to the mix was a 1976 Berlina and a 1966 Lancia Fulvia both driven by Italian ex-pats. \u00a0Several of the lighter Spiders battled up front while other cars were happy to get a real Italian tune-up. The spectators were treated to some spirited drifting around Big Ben and through the S’s. \u00a0In the end each driver was a winner as all cars survived both days. Amazing to see a wonderful group of 50 some year old cars fly around this lovely race track framed by the surrounded fall colored hills.”
\n\"\"<\/a>We all know what this must sound like -a 12 cylinder air plane or 4 Alfa race cars approaching!<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Sprint chases Spider.\u00a0 Spiders always seem to have an edge -lack of a roof lowering the center of gravity?\u00a0 Possibly.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>Beautiful scenery!\u00a0 There’s Marc’s lovely Sprint.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/strong><\/a>Veloce living up to it’s name.<\/strong>
