Here we go to the Italian Round of the European Hillclimb Championship, this year held at the Vallecamonica trophy, in Malegno Borno. As Italian Hilllclimbs go, this was a true test to the machine, with a pretty long and very twisty hill making things very difficult to a good number of the usual Monsters and really emphasizing driver skill and consistency before anything else. From the myriad of GT3 machinery from Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini and now even AMG (!!), to the lightweights like Dondi´s X1/9 or Gurschler´s FIAT 500, to the Judd V8 powered Alfa screaming along the mountain pass, all the way to the ever dominant Lancer Evo Monsters, this is how they placed in the end:
