1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900 | Cars & Motorbikes Stars of the Golden era

Enjoy the spectacular and spine-tingling sound of the legendary Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 "Monza"! The 8C Monza is one of the greatest icons of motorsport, a symbol of Alfa Romeo's dominance in the early 1930s. Designed by Vittorio Jano, its heart was a revolutionary 2.3-liter in-line 8-cylinder engine with a Roots supercharger, which delivered around 165 hp. The "Monza" nickname was earned thanks to the overwhelming victory achieved at the 1932 Italian Grand Prix by the short-wheelbase racing version

This short clip from a documentary retraces Alfa Romeo's history in the late 1920s and early 1930s, when it debuted in racing with the 6C 1500 and the 1750 Super Sport. The latter was used by the newly formed Scuderia Ferrari and driven by none other than the legendary Tazio Nuvolari, whom we wish to remember this way...
