2022 Racing Alpine video

[jdoclogan]

Dave Anderson (owner of Carl Christiansen's Racing Alpine) sent me a video from his recent race. He started 29th out of 30 competitors. Anderson was very pleased with a 9th place and felt good about his driving. My observation, Anderson was patient and made great speed on the straight. Well done Dave!! You also may notice Brad Babb racing the #53 Alpine.

I don't think I've ever seen video of an Alpine passing so many cars. What's he got under the hood?

Yeah pretty cool. The engine is what ever Carl Christiansen configured.

Nice ride along, What a Blast! Got some serious yank under the hood of that one. Wonder why he started so far back in the field? Inverted starting order? Still nicely driven!

Iirc Carl had a 1725 with twin 42mm DCOE snd a bunch of trick stuff.

Carls car may have been built with some of the remnants of one of Ken Miles racers... But sadly most of the original car was destroyed.

I believe Carl was a very effective competitor

It would be great if Dave were to document what is inside it if that engine is ever torn down for refurbishment.
