The Bugatti Race at Goodwood March 2014

The Bugatti Race at Goodwood on the 29th March was the feature race of the GRRDC, and a real spectacle. A lot of work behind the scenes took place to bring together a varied selection of cars for the race. Tula prepared two T35bs, a T35 on carbs, a Brescia and two T59s. It was an exciting weekend of racing once again at Goodwood and all down to Lord March and his team of artists.

All of our customer cars came home and to top that we won the race outright too. Nick Mason had asked me to drive his super fast T35b. It shook my eye balls down the back straight and apart from several slow laps behind the safety car, it was an out of this world experience. Thank you Nick.
