Giulietta Sprint Rally Car – Tour Auto 2012

Tour Auto 2012 Result

One week after collecting the car from Alfaholics, our customer entered Tour Auto, finishing a superb 17th after the car ran faultlessly throughout the event! A superb result for the modest little Giulietta!

February 2012 Upgrade Package

Our French customer contacted us to bring his Giulietta Sprint to the Alfaholics workshops for a range of performance upgrades to be installed prior to the Tour Auto competition rally in April 2012.

We carried out the following upgrades:-

  • Alfaholics 145BHP 1600 engine  – standard valve size, single plug with 40mm Webers
  • Alfaholics Lightweight Steel Flywheel & Sport Clutch Kit
  • Alfaholics Dynator
  • Alfaholics Giulietta Sprint Aluminium Radiator with integrated oil cooler
  • Alfaholics Giulietta Sprint Stainless Steel Sports Exhaust
  • Alfaholics 1600 GTA seats bepoke trimmed in black vinyl to improve lateral support for competition use
  • Avon CR6ZZ competition historic tyres

Test driving the car, I was surprised by its turn of speed, even though it still had the original 4 speed gearbox fitted.  The wide powerband and high torque of the new Alfaholics engine meant that the widely spaced ratios were not as much of a hinderance as one might expect.
