Bugatti Type 51

This car competed in three races, including the Richard Seaman Historic Trophy race, at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2011.

It's the Bugatti Type 51 of Stephen Shoosmith, a 1931 car with a supercharged 2,262cc twin cam straight-8 engine. It has the same chassis and body as the Type 35, but with a twin cam instead of a single cam engine.

On 7 October 2013 I showed photographs of this and other Bugattis at McLeans Corner during the Williams Trophy race at this meeting.
