Alfa Romeo 33 16 valve
This car starts life as a tired and slightly tatty road car in January 2003.
We have stripped it and the preparation of our 2003 challenger has begun!
As with last years Sprint, the 33 will be prepared to run in the modified
classes. This car will be prepared with a full weld-in multi-point cage, custom
made for the car, and full seam welding. This will give us a very stiff and
robust structure which will be as safe as we can make it and a superb platform
for the suspension to work from.
Our engine, gearbox, and brake specifications will be developed to give a
well balanced and reliable car, enabling us to maximize our winning potential
over the course of the season.
