While I agree that ALFAS and Alfisti, and even many European Alfa
dealerships and distributors are very much involved with racing, I have to
wonder how much support they get from "the factory." There is, to my
knowledge, no factory racing organization, anymore, the likes of Chiti's
"AutoDelta" or the factory's own "Alfa Corse."
