OURS IS THE QUADRIFOGLIO VERDE. 1923. Driver Ugo Sivocci, the eternal second-place in circuit races, painted on to his Alfa Romeo RL a white square with a green cloverleaf: it was his lucky charm to power him through the Targa Florio. And sure enough, the success was immediate – at the end of the race Sivocci crossed the finish line an outright first. A few months later, Sivocci returned to race once more, but this time without his Clover- leaf and sadly, this was the race that lost him his life. From that moment, in memory of Sivocci, the Cloverleaf would be displayed on every Alfa Romeo competition vehicle. But the white square would become a triangle, to symbolise his absence. That’s how the Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio Verde was born, the sign under which the greatest drivers of all time raced such as the legendary Tazio Nuvolari and Juan Manuel Fangio.

    Brembo 'Easy Check' Innovation Makes

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BEST EVER BREMBO PRESENCE AT NORTH AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL AUTO SHOW 22 Different Marques Showcase Brembo’s Original Equipment Success DETROIT, Jan. 16, 2010 – Confirming itself as a leading manufacturer in the Original Equipment business, Brembo brakes are fitted to almost one in six cars on display at this year’s North American International Auto Show (NAIAS), held in Detroit. Eighty percent of the Brembo-equipped cars on display at Detroit show are high- performance models; clearly confirming Brembo’s leading edge role in automotive brake technology. Brembo’s advanced technology is finding an increasingly appreciative audience among car manufacturers and not just the traditional European performance car makers. On the domestic side of the OE equation, American marques such as Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford and Tesla are among Brembo’s clients at Detroit, each with its own interpretation of high-performance motoring. Specifically, Brembo brakes are fitted to the Buick Regal GS, the Cadillac CTS-V coupe and XTS sedan, all three making their world debuts. In addition, the Chevrolet Camaro SS and Corvette ZR1, the Chrysler 300C and Dodge’s Challenger SRT8 and Viper Laguna Seca showcase Brembo, as well as the 2012 Ford Taurus SHO, Mustang GT 5.0 and Ford Racing Fiesta. Brembo is also featured on several US-based specialty vehicles, including three Tesla electrics and the Revenge Verde supercar, the only car fitted with Brembo carbon ceramic brakes at Detroit. Since 1961, Brembo has been acknowledged as a world leader in high-performance brakes so it’s no surprise that virtually every European manufacturer of high- performance vehicles chose Brembo for its brakes.

Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics.

Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
