  • Hear the glorious sound of the Alfa Romeo flat 12 screaming around Laguna Seca Raceway. The Championship winner car driven by legendary Derek Bell is a sight to behold. Enjoy the experience!

    Sad to learn of Joe's passing back in 2021. Great guy with a true passion of racing Alfa Romeo. RIP

    I began to watch this video because of the beautiful Alfa Romeo, and i finished to love the passion that this old men are putting in their lives. Sorry for saying old, in reality they are teenagers.

    Nothing upsets me more than seeing old rich guys owning and driving those fantastic machines. Hay grid off a pound of gearbox for me

    Wonderful thing keeping these cars active and driven. I went to Watkins Glen as a high school kid in 1976 for the 6 Hours, but by then the Porsche 936 and 935's were dominating and the Alfa and Ferrari prototypes were out for various reasons. The Alfa Romeo race cars are true things of beauty and do indeed inspire the imaginations of young people. Therefore are very much worth preserving.

    I am so impressed by the good quality video, and the absolute excitement you convey in the driving, speaking, and hearing the Alfa Romeo with screaming in its own voice--I think I hear it speaking to you, Mr. DiLoreto. I hear her speaking your name!

    Beautiful, brutal race car! I've just bought a scalextric model of one, so now I shall imagine the sound of that engine as I whizz around my miniature track! So important to keep cars like this running and racing for all to see - thank you

    Hi Joe, I remember seeing you at the Queen Mary Concour's in early 80's
    My Mom and dad were with me in the ship that morning as we came up from san diego to see the concour;s the next morning, I heard something reallly loud and raspy and when i got out there it was the TT-12 starting up with you in it and picture taking,
    always liked alfa's and the race cars in particular,
    nothing like that flat 12 on song.
    incredible.

      +MILTMINTERJR Good to hear and I'm pleased you enjoyed the video. Your father had a very celebrated and lengthy career! There are a couple of Porsche videos here as well. Plus, as you're probably aware, this year is the 50th anniversary of the Can Am Series. Hope you'll be attending one of the many tribute events. All the Best.

      I was there! Old ALFA fan for years....had a 1969 spider round tail that I kept for over 40 years (the one I drove toe the 1973 event) and SCCA raced a 1967 ALFA GTV in mid 70s in B Sedan. Now have a 2015 ALFA 4C Launch Edition bought new. ALFAs are a wonderful marque. I loved the old Can Am and remember all the cool experimental cars back than....from the vacuum cleaner Jim Hall Chaparral, the 4 WD- 4 engine snow mobile powered car, first AVS Shadow, one with a GMC blown dragster boat engine complete with zoomy headers. Of course some like the above (not the Chaparral) had bad or poorly executed designs.....but remarkable period of race cars.

    Great Video of a great sports car , The owner can drive but not the Alfa t33 he needs to learn how to down shift and stop killing the clutch as much as the gear box, My good friend Andy Newell from the UK or the great Derek Bell should show him how it is done. Sedan drivers show there faults.....

    The Ferrari's at the Long Beach GP in 1977 and 1979 sounded just like this T33.

    • @checkeredflagfilms
      @checkeredflagfilms  4 місяці тому

      Thanks for your comment. yes, similar but not quite. the Alfa has a certain harmonic flat 12 kicker that, in person, delivers a unique resonance.

    The problem is that having so much money gives the right to a certain kind of people to believe they're real good at the wheel... but it's not so easy even if you're a millionaire.

    If you ever get near a racing line or figure out how to shift, it would be more interesting.
