1939 Talbot Lago T23

This car took part in two races, including the 2 hour long VSCC Team Relay Race for Pre-War Sports Cars, at the Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2011.

It's the 1939 Talbot Lago T23 of Richard Black, which has a 6-cylinder inline 3,996cc engine designed by Walter Becchia after Antonio Lago had acquired the Talbot Company in 1936 when it had gone into receivership.

Talbot Lago T23 & Bugatti T35

These cars both competed at the VSCC's SeeRed & Richard Seaman Memorial Trophies meeting at Donington Park in May 2011.

Car number 102 is Richard Black's 1939 Talbot Lago T23, a 6-cylinder 4 litre built after Antonio Lago had taken over the Talbot concern. Car number 55 is Bruce Stops' 1928 Bugatti T35. The Bugatti T35 had an 8-cylinder 2 litre engine, but the programme of the event shows Bruce Stops' car to have a 3 litre unit.
