April 28, 2001

 

To All 2001 Driver’s School / Time Trials Participants:

 

            Attached, you will find the results of this year’s event.  Many thanks to Mother Nature for the weather, to the Almighty for the safety of the event, and to all who participated this year.  Special thanks go to Rick Pocock, Chief Instructor and prime mover of the beautifully planned schedule, to our instructors, to our corner workers, and all who planned and helped execute the event, especially Deno Gualtieri, Eric Porter, Skip Persson, and David Yager.

 

           I would like to note for the record that Skip Persson solicited the very nice prizes that were awarded  from our sponsors: Joe Minocci at Continental Motors, Autoweek Magazine, Hemmings Motor News, Racer Wholesale, and Sports Car Market Magazine.  Please patronize our sponsors whenever possible.

 

            Finally, I would like to compliment all of you who come year after year to make this event possible: I hear from everybody including the instructors, participants from other clubs, even the corner workers, about how pleasant the Alfa event is, and I think that is because Alfa people are special.  Perhaps it is because our cars have passion and soul, but their quirkiness and failings keep us humble.  Perhaps it is because we like to share in each other’s suffering with these addictive machines.  All I know is that after more than 20 years in the Alfa Romeo Owners Club, I have yet to meet a better group of people.  It was a special treat to see Eric Porter re-surface more than 9 years after the “Alfetta Meets Bambi” incident on West Bend, and a pleasure to get back together with Tarik Shapli, who finally got a visa to visit from Pennsylvania.

 

            I hope you all have a great summer, and I look forward to seeing you at our event next year.
