The 2022 Gran Premio Nuvolari was a blast! I did it this year (September 15-18) for the first time with my son, retired Lt. Colonel Tim “Kilo” Piccin, who, having been an F16 fighter pilot, can easily navigate while driving our 1956 Alfa Guilietta Sprint—with a laptop in his lap and a phone in his hand—on narrow Italian country roads, at speed. He told me that the Air Force trained him to do that, and I know enough never to “go there” myself.
