The Tipo C 8C35 was one of the great Alfa Romeo racing cars that saw action under Scuderia Ferrari. This was before Enzo Ferrari had gone and started his own company, at the point in his life where he was making the transition from aspiring racing driver to successful team manager. Ferrari was always a fairly mediocre driver, but as a manager he became the legend we know him as today. It was awesome to see this Tipo C in action at the 2012 Lime Rock Historic Festival. It absolutely decimated its field of competition, doing its heritage proud. Enjoy the gallery.

Love this car. I posted about the Tipo B last year after the Sonoma Historics. Is the car in my post the second car that is running with the Tipo C in the photo above? http://onthelimit.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/sonoma-historics-part-2-the-1930s-putting-the-grand-in-grand-prix/

Nice post. I believe it is the same Tipo B.

What I love about your post and mine is that we both went for the details – suspension geometry, for example. They sound as good as they look.
