I was there. Myself and some AROC buddies drove from the UK in a variety of Alfas (Giulietta Spider, Giulia Spider (x2), 2000 GTV and GTV6). We camped just outside the circuit and had a whale of a time.

Here a couple of pics of the Audi R10s and the start and end of the race:

You must have had great seats along the finish ...


....Now I finally know why Alfa put that silly plastic cover on the hood..It's a giant car coaster so you don't leave beverage rings on the paint!

And here I was thinking it was a testament to how smoothe the Alfa V-6 is :D

PS Barry it ain't some good SA vintage, you know. It's cheap and nasty French plonk :(. If it had spilt, it would have stripped the paint off the car :shock:.
