Iniezione The newsletter of the NorthWest Alfa Romeo Club
A nother cold and rainy December night,
the usual struggle to find a parking
space near Marianna Ristorante (this
party gets more popular all the time; 58 peo-
ple attended this year), a brisk and chilly walk
to the front door, which you push open - and
are met with a blast of warm air, a torrent of
loud and boisterous conversation and the
cheerful smiles of our ever-welcoming (and
incredibly organized) greeters. Festa de-
gli Amici 2019 is under way!
The earliest arrivals are already settled
into their tables with animated socializing,
the extensive array of silent auction items
are laid out along tables and in the bar
booths for some spirited but (mostly) si-
lent bidding, and the room quickly fills up.
Soon an array of enticing and tasty ap-
petizers is laid out, quickly consumed and
quickly replenished, and people gradually
find their way to the main tables, greeting
old friends and making new ones. Fred
announces: “Just a few more minutes till
the auction closes!” and concerned bid-
ders make a last run to check on their bid
standings. “Time’s up!” Bid sheets are gathered up and tak-
en into the bar for compilation, salads are served to each
table, and the conversations get even louder.
The arrival of the entrees quiets everything down a bit, but
the volume soon grows once
again. Eventually Fred calls the
meeting to order (Festa may be a party, but it’s
also December’s Club Meeting), but the formal-
ities are soon over. We have new officers
(Paul and Kristy Affolter take over the Secre-
tary position, leaving the Membership position
open for now)(any volunteers? We also need a
new Treasurer!). Fred reviews recent activities
and David James covers forthcoming events.
We then move
into Jon Inge’s
presentation of a
slide show cover-
ing all the past
year’s activities.
It’s amazing how
many we man-
age to fit in, and
all thanks are due
to the many peo-
Fabulous Festa! Another wonderful evening celebrating our past year

Another trip around the sun...
A s December winds down and January starts up we
celebrate another of Earth's laps around the Sun at
about 67,000 mph. In some ways, it's kind of fun to
think how fast we're going since we'll have travelled another
2,000 miles while you read this column. Add to this, the Earth
surface rotates at around 850 mph in the NW (1,000 mph at
the equator). Thankfully our atmosphere travels with us; think
of rolling down the window at 850 mph, let alone 67,000 mph.
Clearly, our Alfas go pretty fast just sitting in the driveway.
It isn't just speed we are celebrating. We celebrate what
great things we enjoyed and achieved in the past lap, and
what we have to look forward to in the next.
Our club generosity is certainly one reason for celebration
and each of us gets the credit. Donated items for the auction
table at our 2018 Festa brought in around $1,500 in purchas-
es by you. Adding that to some other club revenue meant we
were able to donate $2,000 to the Goodwin Connections.
This Seattle-area organization was founded in 1907, when
the spouses of many of the city leadership saw a need be-
yond the civic planners, movers and shakers. These women
created a local legacy by providing flowers, food, medicine,
medical help, clothing and more to people who were strug-
gling. Known then as the Seattle Milk Fund, they recently
changed their name to the Goodwin Connections, named for
Eda Goodwin, one of their founders and a local philanthropist.
The organization has evolved and now connects families to
educational opportunities that help them build financial stabil-
ity and create generational change by helping young stu-
dents / parents achieve their goals. They make child care
more affordable and consistent through grants as well as by
matching each parent with an advocate and providing profes-
sional development opportunities. My mother was supported
by the Seattle Milk Fund while raising young children and try-
ing to attend University of Washington back in the late 50s
and early 60s.
If you have a suggestion for where we should donate the
proceeds from the 2019 Festa auction, please let me know
via email or phone.
Our generosity extends further with scholarships created at
two local technical colleges teaching automotive trades. With
part of our club focus on the continued use and preservation
of Alfa Romeos it is only logical to redirect some of our reve-
nue from Driving Skills Schools and HPDE days at the track
towards automotive repair / service classes. Partnering with
the Renton Technical College (RTC) and Lake Washington
Technical Institute (LWTI) we are establishing an NW Alfa
Romeo Club scholarship at each school for $2,500 to go to-
wards tuition and possibly tools or books for selected stu-
dents in the Automotive programs. Programs primarily focus
on new car repair, with selected training on older cars. There
are also programs on auto-
body and paint work. We will
have an opportunity to help
choose the student recipients
and get status updates at fu-
ture meetings, perhaps directly
from a student or two. It’s
wonderful to talk with shops in
the area that have hired from
these programs as they speak
highly of the graduates. There are great careers out there
that await skilled mechanics and techs... we are helping peo-
ple with opportunities. These scholarships will be reviewed
and approved annually to continue, change or eliminate
based on results, financial status and membership feedback.
We always strive to have fun events. Events that attract a
variety of members. Events that you just cannot miss out on.
One of the best ways to ensure this, is for you to suggest an
event you'd love to participate in with the club. Our next Club
meeting, being held on January 14 at Spiro's Pizza in Shore-
line, is a great chance to get your idea on the club agenda. If
you can't attend, send me an email with your event sugges-
tions. Let's make sure you're idea is heard.
On the 25th of January an NWARC Board Meeting in Belle-
vue will take the suggestions and make a calendar for 2020.
We’ll also cover a few other club topics like scholarship de-
tails, where to donate, and club direction. Members are wel-
come to attend; contact me for details if you're interested.
Club Officer Position Available: Membership Coordina-
tor. The role helps to track new members and reaches out to
welcome them to the club so they'll know at least one friendly
face. The role may also contact those who forget to renew
and helps keep them from missing any newsletters or events.
Let me know if you are willing to share your sociable side as
a club officer.
Club Officer Position Available: Treasurer. This role
comes with a free trainer and guide (Ken Case), keeps track
of club finances, writes and mails checks, manages the ac-
counts, and handles event payments. Yes, this takes the
same skills you use in your personal life but the difference is
you get Ken showing you the way. Each of you can do this
so please contact me about it. (Besides, the pay is twice that
of the president.)
We had a great 2019 with successful club drives, fun meet-
ings, BBQ, parties, driver schools and lapping days. As
tough as it is to top this, 2020 has many ideas already on the
docket. From go-karts to shop tours, drives and creative
meeting locales it’s looking interesting already. I look forward
to your help in keeping this the best AROC chapter in the na-
tion.

ple who set up and manage every one of them, whether it’s
interesting speakers for our monthly club meetings, trips to
fascinating destinations or fast-paced road trips on unfa-
miliar back-road routes.
Then the highlight of the evening: the presentation of
the Lorna Moore Alfisti of the Year Award. The recipient
is always selected by the current holder of the Award, but
sadly last year’s recipient, Debi Schmid, is unwell and
can’t attend. Fred steps in, reads her announcement of
how she came to her decision, and announces this year’s
recipients as (drum roll please) - Paul and Kristy Affolter!
Fred then wraps up the evening with thanks to all the
many people who made it happen, led once again by the
amazing Judy Gehring, then draws the door prize tickets
to distribute all the many goodies donated by our gener-
ous supporters. Ken and Louisa Case, efficient as ever,
handle the line of people paying their Silent Auction bills
($1,649 received!), the winners gather their treasures,
last conversations keep many back for a while, and
everyone gradually disappears back into the cold and
damp to drive home.
There’s really nothing like the Festa to epitomize what
makes this such a great club.

A Word of Thanks from the Organizers
M any people pitched in to help with this year’s Festa,
and their efforts were greatly appreciated. Thanks to
Kristy and Paul Affolter, Marty Hill, Diego Lasheras,
Cindy Anderson and Tony Schmid, who between them
matched the 89 silent auction items with their bid sheets and
arranged them into attractive, accessible displays in the res-
taurant.
Louisa Case and Cindy Anderson spent the first part of the
evening greeting guests at the door, making sure each re-
ceived the name tags and entrée cards designed and pro-
duced by the Affolters.
After the auction closed Cindy Akana, Lindsay Geyer and
Fred Russell accomplished the huge job of tallying bids and
preparing totals for winners. Ken and Louisa Case patiently
collected payments from bid winners and made sure each
went home with their purchases.
All of these shared efforts made the 2019 Festa degli Amici
an enjoyable and successful experience. Many thanks to all
who contributed their time and expertise.!

At the Ready
E very organization has members that are always “At the
Ready”. Ready to be the sweepers on a road tour,
ready to taste-test for dinners, always making sure the
quality is “up to standard”, ready to put membership flyers on
any Alfa windshield, ready to step in when there is any task
that needs to be done. For many years this pair has been a
quiet backbone for activities in the club, holding numerous
leadership positions and faithfully attending Board and club
meetings and events. Without their work the club would not be
as vibrant and large as it is today.
Thank you Kristy and Paul Affolter, for always being “At
the Ready” and the 2019 recipients of the Lorna Moore “Alfisti
of the Year” award.

T here’s gap between the facts and logic when we look at
the car brake systems, a gap that’s not easy to fill.
Automotive braking systems represent the thorough,
practical development of a heritage design architecture that
creates some problems. For example, selecting a brake fluid
that absorbs and dissolves quantities of water is awkward - but
other solutions would be more so, especially substitutes that
would increase flammability. The same comment applies to
brake fluid attacking painted surfaces. Difficult.
Some of the construction materials, such as seals and flex
hoses, are subject to damage by heat. Others such as hy-
draulic pistons, cylinders, fittings and hard tubing are subject
to corrosion. There are engineering changes that would ad-
dress these problems, but only at high cost and still might not
improve the situation very much. So we adapt and move on.
In winter cold temperatures cause master cylinder seals to
lose their properties, so that’s when we are most likely to en-
counter a soft brake pedal caused by leakage at the seals.
Fresh fluid can provide a remedy, but why?
The reason is that brake fluid contains additives intended to
swell the seals slightly. The seal elastomer absorbs a small
volume of this additive, which thus gets depleted over time.
Fresh fluid can restore worn or aged seals to better perfor-
mance. This problem is most readily manifest at the top of the
brake system, at the master cylinder.
There’s also a winter brake problem at the opposite end of
the brake system, the wheels. Solubility of water in brake fluid
falls at low temperatures to values low enough to separate out
the water. I used to see brake cylinders damaged by pitting
corrosion, and the reasonable inference is that water contribut-
ed to the damage. Fortunately I’ve not seen this on my Alfas.
In summer we experience the opposite, hot-weather prob-
lems. Under the hood (for Alfas that have suspended pedals,
not floor-mounted) the brake system components are subject
to high temperatures, especially if the master cylinder has a
clear path for radiant heat transfer from the exhaust headers.
Classic materials science shows that high temperatures accel-
erate aging or degradation. This damage occurs primarily in
summer, but we tend to find out only in the following winter,
sometimes on the first cold day.
At the wheels, summer is when the brake pads, rotors and
calipers experience wide-ranging heat cycling brought about
by heavy braking. Picture the rotors red hot at the end of a
braking zone on track. When you brake, the fluid in the caliper
is under high pressure, and that suppresses vaporization.
When you release the brake the pressure falls, sometimes far
enough for vapor to form, i.e. the fluid boils. Lower grade
brake fluid such as DOT3 products is more subject to this va-
por formation.
The vaporization problem combines steam production, brake
fluid vaporization and brake fluid decomposition. When this
occurs, the vapor expands and drives some brake fluid from
the calipers back into the master cylinder and the brake fluid
reservoir. This can be vigorous enough to drive fluid out of the
reservoir cap vent. If it drips out on the headers it produces
smoke with an exotic smell; if it somehow reaches the paint it
damages that surface permanently.
More seriously, next time you apply pressure to the brake
pedal, it may go a long way toward the floor, as fluid moves
back into what was the volume occupied by vapor.
Our more-advanced late model cars present an interesting
variant on this situation. In my experience ABS equipped cars
are less tolerant of brake fluid boiling than cars with conven-
tional vacuum-assisted brakes.
In surveying this imperfect scene, the sense of no brakes at
high speed tends to concentrate the mind and reinforce vivid
recollection. Lots of theoretical remedies have been tried but
what we do about it practically is much simpler, a familiar set
of steps that add up fairly well.
Use higher-boiling brake fluid, the better grades of the DOT4
product. Replace the fluid after every performance driving
event. Replace the flex hoses with wire-wrapped hoses, which
minimize their volume increase under pressure and lead to a
better-feeling brake pedal. Replace the master cylinder. Add
a thermal shield to protect the master cylinder. Add heat wrap
to brake lines subject to intense heat. Replace the pads; thick-
er pads reduce conductive heat transfer to the calipers. Re-
place the rotors. Upgrade to vented and slotted rotors. Fit
larger calipers, dissipating the heat over a larger assembly.
Match larger calipers with larger rotors where possible. Fit
alloy wheels, which transfer heat away from the hubs. Re-
place the wheel bearings and grease, selecting grease suita-
ble for use at high temperatures. Remove the fog lamp hous-
ings to fit brake air cooling ducts directed at the calipers.
And after all this we will still overheat the brakes, although at
considerably-higher speed.
Autocrossers resort to a different expedient, in a sport where
it’s common enough to overheat the tires. Drivers roll around
slowly a little, then stop to cool off the tires and wheel hubs
before they get back into grid for their next run. With the car at
rest the driver or a friend sprays the tires lightly with water
from a garden sprayer, the sort with a hand pump and a reser-
voir holding a gallon or two - a new sprayer that has never had
garden products in it. Just watch for boiling and listen for the
sizzle. No stray water goes anywhere; it all flashes to steam in
total loss cooling. You can spray the hubs if they’re too hot,
but stay away from the rotors and calipers. The rotors may
warp anyway, and there’s no sense in hastening the issue.

Boiling the Brake Fluid
Iniezione page 8 January 2020
R omeo Ferraris has
launched its Alfa Romeo
Giulia ETCR project. The
manufacturer, based at Opera
near Milan, has been involved for
more than five years in the
production of the Giulietta TCR by
Romeo Ferraris and its Veloce
restyling, a race winner in every
national and international championship in which it has taken part. Romeo Ferraris
will join Hyundai and Cupra to make three so far confirmed projects for the ETCR
(Electric Touring Car Racing) series, which is due to launch in 2020.
The Giulia street model has already been the object of a Romeo Ferraris program
resulting in a Giulia QV with over 600 hp. As a flagship model it seemed perfectly
suited for a conversion to electric power. The project will bring the Giulia name back
to motor racing fifty years after the Giulia Ti Super made its racing debut in 1962.
The project is a strictly private exercise, as it was for the Giulietta TCR, relying
entirely on Romeo Ferraris’ own staff, trained and developed in-house over the
years. The current organization, despite its smaller size, can claim the same level
of professionalism and commitment of works racing departments.
Romeo Ferraris has been successful in motor racing since 1965, and is looking
forward to the new challenge, which marks its first venture in the world of alternative
energies. For this project, Romeo Ferraris will rely on the support, as technical
consultants, of Hexathron Racing System.
