Races to run to the same format as this year - 15 minute qualy, 30 minute race, and presumably to the same (somewhat vague  ) class regs.
The intention is that the Classic Alfa Challenge will be expanded further in 2020, presumably dependent on support.
As one who loves to see older Alfas being used as they should, I wish him well with this series......sadly our 75 V6 is too new to be included....... |

Hope this goes well. Seems strange that GTV6, 75s and 33s don't seem eligible though. I would fully understand if the cut off was from when the range was largely platform sharing with Fiats.
As an aside, I find it strange that the PCGB, HRDC or a similar organization don't have a series for "classic Porsches". The current PCGB Porsche Club Series is largely run for more modern cars on slick tyres now but I would have thought that there was reasonable market for a series for air cooled 911s and the 924/944/928 of the 80s & 90s.
