Getting Started in the Trofeo Series

The Alfa Romeo Trofeo Series is a “drivers run” series, providing friendly, competitive classic car racing while keeping costs to a realistic level. Four classes of car compete in each race, catering for Alfa Romeo cars from standard road going Alfas, through to fully modified racecars. Each of our races is literally, four races in one. Whether at the front or the rear of the grid, class points are at stake. The competition is keen but clean, with the accent on friendly rivalry and enjoyment of our Alfa Romeos.

While the competition may be keen, the Trofeo series is one of the friendliest and most sociable around. Advice and assistance for fellow competitors is never far away, and the social events are legendary.

A typical season is contested over 10 race meetings, usually three at Pukekohe, two at Manfield and five at Taupo. Two grid start races and if possible, one handicap race are contested at each round. Points are awarded both for class, and for overall championships.

This booklet has been written to help prospective new competitors to the series. We hope that it will help clarify the rules and regulations governing racing, and perhaps answer a few of the questions that any new competitor will naturally need answering.

If you do have any further questions, please ask one of the Trofeo Series committee, or any of the Trofeo Series competitors, we will be happy to help, or if we can’t, we’ll direct you to someone who can. Committee members’ contact details are on the contacts page of the Trofeo Series website.
