Pista & Piloti in Germany – an Alfa celebration, thanks to our friend Stefan.
We, unfortunately do not have as many pictures as we would like about this event that our friend Stefan, he of the Goetzelmann Racing Team fame, has managed to hold in October on a track developed at the former airfield of Pferdsfeld, conveniently nested about halfway between Dusseldorf and Stuttgart.
