French & Italian Show Vancouver BC
Each year, on Father’s Day, Vancouver BC hosts a wonderful car show on the grass at Waterfront Park in the Lonsdale area of North Vancouver. Though the temperature this year
was cool, it’s proximity to the water and the views across to one of the worlds best cities,
provides a really cool setting. It’s no cost to show, or attend with no judging or awards to
hand out and the only rule is the car or motorcycle needs to be either French or Italian.
This is just a very comfortable gathering of common interests.
Previous shows have attracted NWARC members from Washington so this year, I made the
trek to experience this show first hand. We have over a dozen members in the Vancouver
BC area already so this gave me a chance to say hello to a few of them. A couple AROO

Fritz and his Berlina
members came up from Oregon as well. I tracked down
the event organizer, Fritz Duernberger, a long time Alfa
fanatic and interesting guy. He had brought his nice
green low mileage Alfa Berlina, yet we found ourselves
talking about people and bicycles as much as anything
else. Great guy and it was fun to see him in his element.
With approximately 30 Alfas at the show, they were second only to the 40+ Ferraris that arrived. Citroen, Lamborghini, also had great turn out with a few Lancia, Fiat,
Peugeot, Renault, and Maserati as well. Our NWARC
member Ulrich Lanius brought out his GTA, while I also
spotted George Bauman and Keith Stein wandering the
event.
The highlight of any event like this is seeing the rare cars
you don’t often get to see. With Canada having a 15
year wait, rather than the US’s 25 year wait for non certified cars means that 1997 Alfa Romeos can be brought
in legally just north of the border. A young guy brought
his newly acquired 1996 Alfa Spider and I heard the importer, Clemente’s Auto Sport, may have helped as many
as 4 of these come to the area. The silver GTV with

flared wheel wells was a car owned, raced, and enjoyed by
the person for nearly 30 years. The gorgeous Giulietta
Sprints gathered in a cluster numbered 4 cars at one point.
My ears perked up when I heard a unique sound of a car arriving. I looked up to see an ultra rare Lancia Delta Integrale
pulling onto the grass. Next I found a Renault R5 Turbo2, a
bunch of Citroen 2CV in varying styles from sedans to vans.
If there is any downside to this event, it is that there is a border to cross to attend. I have a challenge crossing into Canada because they somehow believe I’m a bad seed. I refuse
to bring an Alfa across the border since I must spend an hour
or more being searched and having the car taken apart…
which includes damage being done during the inspection.
This is an incredible invasion of personal space and the only
happy endings I get are the cars at show. If you go in the
future, don’t ride with me and you probably won’t have a
challenge.

While in Vancouver, enjoy this metropolitan city. From the
new Sky and Cliff Walks at Capilano, the Grouse Mountain
tower, Stanley Park, Gastown, Van Dusen Gardens, or the
cools shops, bars, and eateries on Robson Street… there is so
much to enjoy in the area in addition to the great Father’s
Day car show. By Fred Russell

President’s Column
by Merril Gordon
have to look at one later.
Remember Dick & Jessica Camp? They hosted the
NWARC for a BBQ the evening before our ½ Fast Lap in
Eastern WA two years ago. Some months past I had
asked for not so pleasant driving experiences. Here’s
Jessica’s note:
Summer Fun
Any of you enjoying your Alfas yet this
summer? I had a fun time with my
GTV6 at our evening track day at Pacific
Raceway June 13th. I did loose it in a
big way on Turn 2 spinning out completely but staying on the pavement.
Lost it right in front of Michael Harris
and his GTV6. That was not my plan!
The next day I swapped out my track
tires for highway treads and drove to
Eastern Oregon. My home town of Elgin
has a one day festival including a small
car show. I always enter one of my Alfas and win the long distance award.
Upon return the mileage displayed 660
with fuel use showing 30mpg for the
drive and 10mpg for the day at the
track. Pretty respectable performance
for a 30 year old Alfa I’d say.
Decided to go have a look at one of
those new Toyota/Scion/Subaru/FR-S/
BRZ 2+2 sports cars on Saturday. Isn’t
that something of an Alfa-GTV6 competitor ? I think so. Couldn’t find one to
have a look at though. The salesmen
said they’re getting allotments and are
currently filling orders already placed by
buyers. The dealers love this as they
can charge a premium for this first wave
of interest, not so good for guys who
have to be first on their block to have
one. I have seen a few in those cars in
the big parking lots where I work.
AAAAaaaaa!!!!! Leading driver Sebastian Vettel’s Red Bull F1 car just quit
65% into the race. Oh yeah, back to my
article……I can see the factory’s point of
view though, i.e. initial interest is always
high on a new interesting car but fades
after a year or so and settles to a lower
sales rate. I can see production holding
at that rate for the stability of quality
control and supplier coordination. And
limited supply always keeps the desirability and cool factor up. Anyway, will
Dick bought our first Alfa in 1971. As he left Yakima for
Seattle one day, he asked me my favorite color
(yellow). When he returned, he had a yellow Spider. We had a
lot of fun with it (before children). However, we also had two
accidents before we ended up selling it after starting our family.
The first accident took place in the middle of winter in Yakima
with lots of snow on the ground and roads. I was going around a
corner on my side of a small road when a big LTD Ford came
from the opposite direction down the middle. I went for the side
of the road, but didn’t have enough traction to get completely off
when he hit me in the driver’s door. However, with all the snow,
he ended up pushing me completely off the road leaving his car
blocking the road both directions. I had to climb out the passenger door, unhurt, but a bit shook up. Long story short, he
wanted to move the cars; I said, “Not until the police come”; he
claimed it was a one way street (wrong); complained loudly to
the policeman (who took photos); and when he left, the policeman asked me what really happened. When repaired a few
weeks later, Dick was rear-ended on the Tacoma freeway in a
freak hail storm, but was not injured. That is a story for another
day. We now have two Spiders, and are enjoying them greatly!
Not the results everyone wants, that’s for sure Jessica. Driving
your Spider in the winter? Now that’s impressive! But for the
rest of you Alfa drivers, let’s put some miles on those cars, even
if it means taking a few days off when the sun is shining and
you’re up for some scenery soaking. Nothing like an Alfa for
those days.
See you on the road,

NWARC July Club Meeting
Normally he’s a club member, but at this meeting, Fred Wright will be our guest. He’ll
be talking about the new race course, The Ridge Motorsports Park. It may include some
construction pictures as well as how our members can use the track.
When: Thursday, 10th 6:30 - 9:30 PM
Where: Lombardi’s Cucina
695 NW Gilman Blvd Issaquah 98027
Many people have shared stories
about driving the new race track
near Shelton, WA. It has an excellent smooth surface, high & low
speed portions, a variety of curves,
elevation changes, and a turn every
bit as fun as the corkscrew from Laguna Seca.

Summer Drive August 25th!
Come bring your favorite ALFA for a summer drive through the beautiful Snoqualmie
Valley. Ken and Louisa Case have laid out a scenic and interesting route for us to use.
The route includes beautiful valley views, some “off the beaten path” back roads (all
paved) and some up close looks at Mount Si.
Along the way we will stop for a tour of Camp Korey at the old Carnation Farm. Camp
Korey is a children’s summer camp provided for children dealing with childhood illness or
serious medical conditions. The camp was founded in 2005 by Tim Rose in memory of
his son Korey who died of cancer at age 18. The programs at the camp are provided
free so the kids can “raise a little hell” in spite of their situation. In 2008 the camp became part of seriousfun founded by Paul Newman. (campkorey.org)
Later we will visit Jim Giordano’s Vintage Motors in Carnation. Jim has a showroom full
of interesting old cars including a nice ALFA 164. I’m sure Jim would be happy to sell
you any of his collection if you asked. (giocars.com)
We will end our drive at Jay Berry’s in North Bend where we can all have a snack and
tell each other what marvelous drivers we have been.
We will be starting at the Starbucks in Redmond Town Center (7525 166 th Ave NE) at
11:00 AM. (Map available at redmondtownceter.com) The drive to North Bend is about
40 miles and we should reach there about 1:30 PM including generous time for our
points of interest.

Alfa News
It’s with sadness, that I share the news that Char
Sommers, long time Alfista, member and leader with
Alfa Romeo Owners of Oregon, and constant presence
with the national club, has passed away. Char had
been one of the people helping put on the Monte
Shelton NW Classic Rally and both of the Portland
based national AROC conventions, and as a club officer and volunteer. “Spirited and passionate in her
love of Alfas and AROO, never shy with an opinion,
and never one to stand by while others worked. She jumped in and did whatever
was needed and we have a fine club to show for her many efforts.” said Roger
Dilts, President of Alfa Romeo Owners of Oregon (AROO) A celebration of Char’s
life will be held on July 21st in Gervais, OR. Contact Gordy at 425-241-9307 if
you want to carpool or caravan to the service.
On June 2nd & 3rd SOVREN held
their Festival of Speed at Spokane Raceway Park. The event
went really well with plenty of
good weather, lots of great racing,
and plenty of Alfa Romeos. There
were over ten NWARC members
either racing or watching the
event.
Our June club meeting enjoyed a fantastic setting at Club Auto in Kirkland. We had a few
new members attend, met the Hagerty Insurance people, heard fun details by Steve Anderson and Bill Gehring as they talked about their
new 1957 Alfa Spider, and watched a couple
movies. We first watched the movie Rendezvous, then a biography of Enzo Ferrari that featured plenty of Alfa content.
Concorso Italiano on August 17, will be featuring
Bertone and one of the rare cars on display will
be the Alfa Romeo show car called the Navajo.
Based on a Tipo 33 and utilizing extreme design
lines, active aero features, this is well worth seeing!
Per a Chrysler Group LLC press release, the new
Alfa based Dodge Dart earned a #1 ranking on
Kelley Blue Books’ “10 Coolest Cars under
$18,000”. It’s almost as if the Alfa reputation is cool
and it helps to sell cars! We’ll just have to see if that
helps the Dodge, or hurts Alfa Romeos return.
ABC Brianza has come out with another 1:43 scale
miniature Alfa Romeo. This
time it’s the Alfa truck, or
Mille Cassonato. It comes as
either a kit or finished truck
with prices starting around
$600.

2012 Half Fast Lap
Sept 15-17
Make Hotel Reservations Now!!
Each year, NWARC enjoys a wonderful 3-day drive. Last year
took us to the Tri-Cities, Palouse, a Snake River dam, and a
wind turbine farm. Back in 2010, we wandered Mt. St. Helens,
the Washington coast, and parts of the Olympic Peninsula.
This year, our trip starts by heading south to the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge to see if any birds are on their Half Lap.
Then to the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge with
a couple quick stops before ending in The Dalles. Sunday, we
head for the twisty roads and small towns of eastern Oregon
before returning to The Dalles. Yes, we return to the same
hotel. Staying in the same hotel, in a cool town makes our
travelling easier but also allows people to stay behind who
don’t want to drive twisty roads. On one of our two nights,
we’ll make a quick visit to Goldendale for a tour and celestial
education at the Goldendale Observatory. Our Monday brings
us westbound through the Columbia River Gorge on the Oregon side. This allows a drive along the Historic Highway which
is one of the nicest roads around, plus stops at a few of the
fantastic waterfalls along the way. An optional stop for a little
vino from one of the great Portland wineries before we drive
the “exciting” run back north along I-5 to the Seattle.
These Half Laps are always a great
drive filled with great roads, wonderful people, educational opportunities,
cool scenery, and a few stories to tell.
If you have blood in your veins, you
need to attend this event. The first
step is to make your hotel reservation
for our 2 night stay in The Dalles,
Oregon at Cousins Country Inn. Call
them at 800-848-9378. Ask for Barb
and tell her you want a room from the
block reserved for NWARC. Rooms
are around $100 per night.
Viva Italia
July 14th
Last Track Evening!
When: July 18th 5PM—Dark
Where: Pacific Raceways - Kent
This is our last evening lapping event
since it’s into the Evening. Register by
June 8th to make sure there is space and
food for you!
Our third annual Viva Italia Car & Motorcycle show will be held on July 14th
and once again, Columbia Winery will be our host location. Last year had
around 60 total cars, with around 25 being Alfa Romeos. This is a great
chance to enjoy sharing your Italian car or motorcycle with others… perfect
garage queen, club racer, or dusty daily driver can all display side by side.
The event opens at 10:30 AM and runs until 3:30 PM. Come when you
can and leave when you need… this is an open attendance event. This is also
a food and fundraiser for HopeLink, a local group supporting local families so
try to remember to bring a donation.
Columbia Winery 14030 Northeast 145th Street Woodinville
This is always a great event and the long
shadows and golden hours make for excellent photo ops if your not driving or
working the event. Did you know that
Alfas go faster in the evenings? Come
on out and find out for sure!
To drive, work turns, help with setup of
the event, go to:
www.nwarc.motorsportreg.com
The gates are open by 4 PM and we try
to start as early as possible after 5 PM.
There will be plenty of track time so this
is a great deal for the money… plus you
only have to leave early from work. (No
day off required.)

The Maryhill Loops Road was first constructed from 1909
to 1913 by Samuel Hill (1857–1931), founder of Maryhill

25 curves including 8 hairpins with a gradient of ascent at
5%.
