And I thought it was just me ! Rather than being enemies, it seems that GT40s and Alfas have something of an affinity. I "only" have two fun cars - a GTD, used mainly for fast road and trackdays and a production race Alfa 33 (unfortunately not the Type 33 70s sports proto !) which I use for circuit racing here in the UK. Two more different cars you can't imagine - the GT40 being a 'point and squirt' beastie and the 33 being a highly forgiving sticky go-kart.I used to race a Sud (until it got shortened in startline shunt last year) and you have to admire the engineering behind the Alfas - if only they could learn to make them properly !
