fausto, how long is the Castell'Arquato hillclimb? The cars seem to be a varied selection, any other single seaters besides the Formula Monza?

:cool:

Fausto, I was there too (on saturday) to admire the largest amount of stunning Abarth machinery I had ever seen. David Piper was there too with his green Ferrari. All in all a very interesting event, a shame that the air temperature was so high (and the mosquitos so aggressive) to spoil some of the fun!

I'll post some of my photos on this very thread if you don't mind!

And...

The hillclimb is 8.5 Km long, with a 290 mt rise.

Just another thing...if you have to reach the Riviera Ligure from the Lombardia and you have some spare time it's not a bad idea to take the SS45 that heads from Piacenza to the little town of Bobbio and then to Genoa: there are some 100 km of curvy road and nice landscapes (only look out for overenthusiast bikers and don't try in winter time - fog and verglas awaiting! - )

Thanks for sharing those, Fausto :up:

That trailer for the Techno PA123 somehow looks so...genuine - like a time warp ;)

BTW: You wouldn't happen to have some more pics of that cute little Rizzato Formula Monza, would you? What year is it from?

I have one more pic, rear view, I'll post later or tomorrow.....don't know exactly about the year of manufacturing, it'd be from the second half of the seventies/early80s (Formula Monza was stopped in 1984, after Formula Panda was introduced in 1983)

I was a sponsor at Vernasca in 2004 and missed it last year, although it was their 50th anniversary. Definitely doing it this year , hopefully in the HRG twincam . See some pics from my website
