Fine traditions, that’s what we’re all about – along with a few other values. It was therefore quite a unique pleasure that Mariano, yes, he of Suixtil USA, was able (again) to both setup the Suixtil tent for friends and aficionado alike to come and trade stories, and get some track time too. In keeping …

Race Week in Monterey – it’s so great to be back!
The reasons were good and many but the reality is that there is simply no possible replacement for the pleasures supplied in inordinate volumes by a full dose of race-week on the Monterey peninsula. Picture this: the events, the cars, the friends, the racing, the auctions, the action, did we already mention the friends? In …

The Vernasca Silver Flag keeps getting better (if that’s even possible)….
Back to its regular programming in June, audiences have once again gathered to celebrate everything motorized in Piacenza (between Milan and Parma, for reference), for that for the Vernasca Silver Flag. This was in keeping with a long-established tradition, while, at the same time, staying nicely under the radar so that the gathering still has …

A brand new (ah!) racing series and your brand is associated with it – glorious we say!
Count us lucky – or have we asked you for that favor before? We are so fortunate – having preached the Suixtil gospel for a while now, our friends Pia and Tony, yes them from the Historic Racing Repertoire, approached us with an offer we couldn’t refuse (no animal was armed in the process though): …

A Labor (Day weekend) of love at Lime Rock
So it was that the Labor Day at Lime Rock was a double (and some) feature this year: Mariano, our Suixtil USA distributor, was there with a superb and properly appointed stand. He also, these things cannot be helped, brought a race car (see the opening photo) along, because, you know. He had a great …

Visit the Simeone Museum in Philadelphia – at life speed!
Thanks to our friend Mariano (yes, he of the GVCC fame – how does he even manage Philadelphia in February with a Barcelona is testament to a thick hide…), February does not have to be just a sad affair any longer and you can finally take an in-depth tour of one of the premier collection …

Night at the (Fangio) Museum….
What did you think happened when the open the doors of such a special place as the Fangio Museum in Balcarce to Mauricio, our dedicated artisan who is responsible for the elaboration and the craft of – among others – our helmets. Well, of course he will take one of our Rivadavia along and, bring …

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. All we can tell you …

Our Xmas gift to you? A look back at the Vernasca Silver Flag, an event that has it all (and lots of Suixtil moments too)
