Bernardo Martinez, Jr.
wins the SVRA Feature Race For Cars of Italy in a Roman
Auto Prep built and prepared Alfa Romeo GTV.
Martinez Jr. started the race from his P2 qualifying
position, behind the Ferrari Spice GTP of McLaughlin.
When the Spice pitted on lap 4 Martinez led the
remainder of the race unchallenged.
Roman Tucker of Roman Auto
Prep commented… "We were very pleased to see
Martinez win so convincingly. I actually built
this particular car in 2005 for another client but in
the spring of 2007 that client offered the car for sale
and Martinez Jr. bought it. This was the first
race with Martinez behind the wheel and his impressive
driving capabilities in conjunction with our chassis
appears to be a great combination."
The SVRA Mid Ohio Vintage
Grand Prix has traditionally been one of Roman Auto
Prep’s best attended events. Roman Tucker:…
"Mid Ohio is a great track for an Alfa because of its
size and configuration. It’s very satisfying to
drive at speed here with a properly prepared car.
Most of my customers insist on having this event on
their colander."
