Check the calendar for each of these, as some will require early booking!
We have several feature articles in this month's Notizie Alfisti including: a new National AROCA Events Calendar by David Wright, our Patron and National AROCA Coordinator, and to which all of the AROCA Divisions have contributed; a review of the new Alfa Romeo Junior "A New Era for Alfa" by Bruce Baum; and an article by AROCA SA member Phil Radoslovich "How to turn dreams into disappointment at Lake Gairdner - just add water!" on the exploits of an AROCA NSW member who has been endeavouring to better a national speed record using an Alfasud Sprint as a Salt Lake Racer at SpeedWeek in SA. There is also a report from the Goldfields Chapter on their recent 10th Anniversary Celebratory Drive.
If you would like to attend the Cuore Sportivo Grand Final Tour, being held over the long weekend in late September, then send Clyde (SUV Register Captain) an Expression of Interest & start planning!
Planning is underway for the Alfa Club 10 Hour Relay, a regularity trial at Winton, over the weekend of 4th & 5th October. This is AROCA's 20th anniversary of the running of this event! We are hoping that many of our Club members will attend to cheer the competition Team on.
Next, we have our annual Spettacolo festival, comprising a Concorso and a Dinner on Saturday 15th, and the Show & Shine at Wesley College, Glen Waverley, on Sunday 16th November. Colin Edwards is our new Concorso Director and he'll have more information on Concorso at Club Night. As ever, we are looking forward to a big turn out of local & interstate members with their Alfas.
