1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B.
Sommer and Biondetti very nearly won the race in it, only losing in the last hour when the engine blew.

I thought it had seven legs
I used to work in what had been AGIP House, when they had an office in London. It was the Italian state oil company, and from old films you'll see that they were involved in motorsport for years. However, Ferrari have had the odd romance with Shell

Hi Lorry, I think it has to do with the weather . High speed and hot weather testing. There is a similar facility in South western USA. Canada specilizes in COLD weather testing (seriously) Phil |

Ok back with a great looking one, loved to have seen this or had a go in it.
Makes Andy's Commer and Rex's popemobile look very sedate.
What can you tell me about this one?
