Hi guys, anyone up for a meet to watch the Alfa Romeo Championship at Cadwell on the 12th of April? I will give them a ring a few days before the 12th to make sure it's still on, as on one occasion it was cancelled. Should be a good day. Regards, Mark

not a bad days racing but VERY cold we had everything, sunshine, wind, rain, sleet talk about 4 seasons in one day
a good battle between chris snowden in a 33 & neil smith in a 156 for the lead after the quick hail storm. soaking track with chris on wets and neil on slicks . very entertaining lights to flag
shame about adie hawkins who suffered an engine problem within the first few minutes of qualifying putting him out for the day
good racing all day though

Agreed. But what about Peak alfa's (Roger Evans)3.8gtv, spun 4 times in the first race (was also on slicks)and finished 4th. then absolutely mullered everyone in race 2. Stunning car and extremely quick !!

Re: ARCA @ Cadwell Park 12th April

You like your Suds then ! I was probably most dissappointed with Graham Presleys 75 turbo which looked off the pace all day until finally giving up the Ghost in race 2 when it dropped oil all over the track .Bad news.

There were plenty of spins all around the track, heres a couple of 145's did'nt make it through the slippery conditions, fortunately no-one was hurt......

Top quality pics Mark, knock mine into a cocked hat.
Was yours the red 147 that was parked in the in the upper field & then moved to near/behind the mountain grandstand?
