Alfa driving schools (was Re: Gheesh)

["Colin Verrilli" <verrilli@domain.elided>]

If you don't like this attitude (I wouldn't) and want to attend an event
that is tailored specifically to the beginner Alfa driver and is
conducted
by a group of laid-back and friendly (but disciplined) Alfa drivers
THEN...
Come to Alfas Roaming Roebling in Savannah, GA March 4 & 5th.
See this URL for details:

And, for the record, we have no problem filling an event with mostly
Alfa
Romeo cars and making enough money to support our other club events for
the year.
It just takes the right attitude.
