Me too- The Alfa that is. Too nice of a car to hill climb in IMO.

Yup, glad to live in PA at my pleasure, whenever I want, just blast up the hills

I love all these videos, have most saved to my favorites already. It's sad some of the cars they wreck but at the same time, cars to them mean a lot different then what we think of some of those older cars, they don't think they should have a life of, park outside, wash, rinse, wax, put in garage in 6 moths repeat and so on, they drive em!

Great stuff! The FWD cars in this vid that were fast seemed to me to have retained a tad of under-steer in their set up. Many of the FWD cars in the OPs vid seemed to be tuned neutral or or even loose- and many seemed to be done in by late braking and/or cold tires. FWD should work very well in hill climbs (it would seem) as the tires are not getting cooked by braking like they would on a flat course and in fact get at least part of the way to temp at the start. Great to watch so many different setups handle the same sections.
