SCCA Solo II CSP Alfa

[mark m thornton <markmt@gte.net>]

In v06.n014 Tim asks about running a spider in SP.  Although I'm no expert 
on the spider,  I thought I'd pass along some comments from two years 
running the milanocrosser in CSP.

It's very easy to wind up classified in CSP in an Alfa.  In the case of the 
milano verde / 75 3.0 it was the 7-inch wheels and the ricambi coils, bars, 
and swaybars which did it.  The specific method used to arrive at negative 
camber can also bump an Alfa out of the stock classifications.

About modifications which are not allowed in SP ... I'd get a rulebook and 
go through it in detail.

The local club allows folks to bring the car they have and run as novices 
for a year or two ... all the novice drivers run in one class, regardless 
... not a bad way to get started.
