Did I mention that I wear glasses? The small size and humped back said Alfa TZ to me, I didn’t read the list...
Here are a few comments I made to another small car entrant:
Your car is relatively small and narrow, so less forgiving on this big track.
You are probably asking because it qualified higher and maybe finished lower. That put it in the race against bigger, wider, and faster cars, which drivers try to keep up with, but can’t. Notice how the top four are all wide for instance. The smaller cars, the 904s, the Bobtail often have the speed, but can’t corner at speed with the wide bodies. I can’t emphasize enough how fast and forgiving the top four cars are, you can overdrive into a corner and they just hunker down and work through. As a lover of small cars (I co organize the Sprite and U13 proxies with VTECFOUR) I know Size matters, and bigger cars are nearly always faster at this big track.
Your Alfa, I mean Ferrari, didn’t have too much motor and drove well for its speed. That was not the case with all the small cars, so you had to remember to brake hard, or go slower than motor allows. When you are switching cars every three minutes, that is a challenge.
The other issue is that track owner Bob who qualified the cars can get the most out of any car. Bob, cover your ears: The rest of the club aren’t as good a drivers, especially at his track.
