The rest of the snide comments from one obviously uninitiated deleted to

I know of a few Alpines that would give you "ackerman challenged" jokers a
run for your money on a autocross or tight road course. It is obvious that
someone needs to teach you guys a lesson!

As far as looking at other cars and meeting their owners (I guess that this
is one of the big attractions at a SUNI, right?), there is more variety (at
least in stock form) and bueaty (my opinion, also pertaining to stock) to be
found with Alpines than Tigers. And, from my limited experience the Alpine
owners are just as nice and tend to be a little less arogant!

Give the Alpine some respect. If it had never been you'd be looking for a
215 for your MGB and wishing you had the bucks for a Cobra.
