This car competed in the Pre '52 Grand Prix Car Race at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1995.
It's the 1937 Alfa Romeo 308 of Julian Majzub, driven in the race by Duncan Ricketts. The chassis of the Tipo 308 was developed from the 1935 Tipo C, and the engine from the supercharged straight-8 Tipo 8C 2900 enlarged to 2,991cc. The car was not a great success, unlike the Tipo 158 voiturette that followed it.
On 18 August 2015 I showed photographs that I took of this car at Silverstone in 1996.
