Third Generation Car manufacturers like Porsche are constantly working on new designs and new models. All major sports car producers were soon entering their newest, fastest models and the great rivalry between Mercedes, Ferrari, Masserati, Jaguar and other illustrious names was played out along roads of the Madonie. The visual appearance was modified, however, with the previous durable brushed stainless steel Targa roll bar now also available in black. And as Biggins can personally attest, the race has continued in various forms, from a vintage race to a modern rally. Mitter emulated Barth in taking three European Hill Climb Championship titles and even surpassed the achievements of his predecessor by winning them in consecutive years. The reason for this was that from onwards, a fixed glass panoramic rear window was introduced as an option and became finally the only variant. For most Americans, auto racing comes down to one factor: speed. In principle, it had the same Targa roof design as its predecessor, but with an additional practical rear lid.

  • 90Th Anniversary of the Targa Florio Victory: Bugatti Wins Fifth Consecutive Title
    90th anniversary of the Targa Florio victory: Bugatti wins fifth consecutive title MOLSHEIM 02 05 2019 FOR MANY YEARS BUGATTI DOMINATED THE MOST IMPORTANT CAR RACE OF THE 1920S Legends were born on this track. Targa Florio in Sicily was considered the world’s hardest, most prestigious and most dangerous long-distance race for many years. Today, current Bugatti models remind us of the drivers from back in the day. Sicilian entrepreneur Vincenzo Florio established his own race on family-owned roads in the Madonie region. Between 1906 and 1977, sports cars raced for the title at international races, some of which even had sports car world championship status. Winners at this race could proudly advertise their victory. For this reason, all important sports car manufacturers sent their vehicles to Sicily. Between 1925 and 1929 Bugatti dominated the race with the Type 35. In particular, in 1928 and 1929, one man showcased his skills at the wheel of his vehicle: Albert Divo. In these two years he was unbeatable in his Bugatti Type 35 C, winning the race in Sicily on 5 May 1929 after having also claimed the top spot in 1928. He also set a further record when he crossed the finish line: the “Fabrik Bugatti” team won the title five times in a row – this had never been done before in the history of the Targa Florio and remained an unbeaten record until the end of the last official races, to this day. A reason to look back. After all, the race was anything but easy: initially one lap of the “Piccolo circuito delle Madonie” was around 148 kilometres, from 1919 organisers cut the race lap distance to a still considerable 108 kilometres.
