Lutz and many other Alpha drivers do very Well with the ALpha engines. They have proven to be reliable and long lasting engines with as much or more power than anything esle out there no matter the price tag. Its just hard for some people to get off the "Brand" wagon of the other brands sometimes. Fact of the matter is Alphas are awesome engines. And the guys teasing are just ignorant and childish.
But it makes it really fun when you smoke em and prove them wrong.
