Not a bad looking car considering the graphics.

Wonder if those velocity stacks are electric (for flat torque range).

like this car had;

Hi Trevor, Hi Mark,

This is taken during on of the worlds most famous races, the Le Mans 24hr. Awesome!

I also thought that Scuderia was involved with Ferrari in some way. The vehicle does exhibit classic Ferrari lines in its design and looks much better than the recent line of Ferrari's, which have lost a lot of their classic type looks and are quite boring to look at.

Not required anymore, most performance cars have a variable inlet manifold, which does the same thing.

Umm...

Scuderia means Stable in Italian, so it refers to a race team.

Now here's one car (of many) at the Phillip Island Historic races that I may have traded my first born for the chance to drive.

http://www.alfaclubvic.org.au/forum/...p?topic=4422.0

About halfway down the page is a video of the Alfetta 159 that Fangio won the 1951 world championship in starting up last Saturday. I'm standing just off frame on the LHS holding up the bunting to keep the crowd at bay.

I got to touch the car, I got to wheel it in and out of the garage, I stood on pit wall when it drove past.

Best thing was next to it in the garages was a Tipo33 LeMans car, which also looked and sounded fantastic.

If you are interested in classic racing vehicles you have to come to PI at some stage, it's like Goodwood, only less commercial.

I'm usually working in the pits for someone, if you're interested drop me a PM before next year, it's usually on the week before the GP.

Cheers
Stuart
