I knew Russ only from his posts on the Digest and it was clear he was one the most experienced on Alfa's. His technical answers's were spot on and he was always there to help. Similiar to the late Fred DiMatteo he was a selfless resource. To all his family and friends, we offer our sincerest condolences.

I knew Russ only from his posts on the Digest but developed a great respect for him as a knowledgeable person and a true Alfista. Such is our community that we can join hands across the oceans in mourning his passing. So from the other side of the world, to all his family and friends, we offer our deepest sympathy and sincere condolences. May He Rest in Peace.

I was wondering what the general consensus is for tires these days. I would love to have another set of unsaved A008r's but I don't suppose there are any dot race tires that get 5-6K miles these days. Any preferences? 205/50/15 Bob ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 9 Aug 2010 16:40:05 -0700 From: George Graves <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [alfa] Tires Try Toyo's Proxes R888s!. They are the best handling, grippiest DOT approved tire on the market these days and they are available in 15" size (so many of the very best tires start at 16" of higher).

I purchased the RE-11 in the same 205 50-15 size, and I am most pleased with these tires. My RE-11 purchase was specifically for a track day.
