1963 Alfa Giulia Super Ti
Bought by Gabriel & Dion Kremer to supplement their race weekends, it has fast become one of their favourites.
It competes in various historic races throughout Europe, including the Masters pre '66 Touring car and the popular U2TC race series amongst others.
Notable events have been the 2008 F1 Grand Prix support race at Silverstone and in 2009 it took part in the Spa 6 hour endurance race.
Spa 6 hour race - 2009
The lack of physical effort required by the driver and its predictable handling made it a good choice for the long distance event.
Our aggressive strategy required Dion to restrain his usual 'drive the wheels off it' style to preserve tyres and fuel (at least until the end when he set the car's fastest time on the last lap of the race in the dark!)
Everything went like clockwork with Dion starting and finishing, Gabriel and myself filling in the middle to give both the car and Dion a rest.
If you look at the results you'll see Alfa number 70 qualified an impressive 75th out of 100 starters, and during the race made up a staggering 36 places to finish 39th overall. We finished 2nd in class and were only just pipped for a podium place, coming 4th out of all the touring cars - beaten only by two Ford Mustangs and a Lotus Cortina.
Incredible!
