No probs. I was really targeting the Alfa as it seems like a great but tough little car to drive. It revs out really well! The lancia is just another option with totally different driving dynamics that should be of comparable pace?

I’d be interested to hear peoples thoughts on the combos anyway, it’s certainly not a Seanus or Roo compilation, but could be entertaining, or at least something to start with.

After a quick drive today the Lancia at 5kg/hp is a fair bit quicker than the Alfa at 6.6kg/hp.

That could always change.  ;)
Cars would need to go through XGN Homologation, so specs could differ.  ;)

After a quick drive today the Lancia at 5kg/hp is a fair bit quicker than the Alfa at 6.6kg/hp.

I did a few laps in both at a track I was relatively quick at (Reservoir Mini Track Reverse) and the best lap times (after 3 laps) I got in both were
Alfa 01:34.23
Lancia 01:34.61

They certainly both drive differently to one another, and I do agree that the Lancia should/would be quicker, but I don't think it will take much adjustment to get them very similar.

Anyway, another option could be (as I suggest it would be a lot easier and more fun), is to do a Austin Healey Sprite (Race) vs Austin Mini Cooper S FIA App.K.  It may actually attract a few of the other guys back for a season as well (ie Cooper and the other lads).
