jamesholland should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I can add a little more to fines erudite posting.

The Tipo B referred to (car No.2) is unlikely to be 50002 as that car was in Australia for many years before being brought back to the UK by the Hon. Patrick Lindsay in the late 1960s. I'm fairly certain that the Indy car is the one recently brought to the UK from America by Hugh Taylor.

Car No. 3, the 308, is the one preserved in the Indianapolis Museum

Can anyone shed any light on the fate of the 8C-35 (car No.1)? I was led to believe only two 8C-35s remain - 50013 the ex Dennis Poore car and 50014 which Paul Grist discovered in Argentina.
