Lime Rock Historic Festival: 1935 Alfa Romeo Tipo C 8C35

Alfa Romeo Tipo C 8C35

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.

      1. 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.
