90-year-old Bugatti Type 35B Grand Prix car driven on the limit!

I had the pleasure to record this 1927 Bugatti Type 35B Grand Prix car driving up the Goodwood's hillclimb course in both the 2017 and 2019 editions of the Festival of Speed. Yes, it sounds to be nothing special since it's common to see pre-war cars there. But thanks to its owner and driver, Julian Majzub, you can enjoy it at full blast!
Introduced at the Grand Prix of Lyon in 1924, the first original Type 35 was followed by various updated versions: Type 35A and Type 35C in 1925, Type 35T in 1926 (which was a special version for the Targa Florio) and the Type 35TC, nicknamed '35B', as the final version of the Type 35 family. The Type 35B is powered by a Roots supercharged 2.3-liter straight-8 engine producing around 140hp.

That's the way it's supposed to be. Racecars, regardless of how old they are, should be raced as instead of being put in a museum and never touched again.

[@verdict1163]

If everyone had that attitude there wouldn't be any left

[@joshschneider9766]

One should always be in a museum for posterity. Thankfully they made plenty of type 35s.

[@cbj4sc1]

I think some should be in museums, but there should be as many on the track.

[@roddyjarrar728]

I feel that way about the late 356b cars porsche produced. Alot of them are becoming harder to find because collectors keep them like Ferraris, almost never to be driven but only once a year maybe.

[@josevillca8924]

Una solución sería tener el permiso de hacer réplicas funcionales de estos

[@greyriddance64]

Still able to put up quite a show after 90 years. With the proper driver, of course.

[@DatOneCat]

It puts a smile on my face seeing this old racecar be driven like this. od

[@jimzucker]

same!

[@SirTripps]

That driver has got some huge balls for driving that car properly, it's fantastic to watch

[@PatrickNobleX21]

Julian Majzub is an absolute legend! I could watch him drive all day. He completely ignores the fact that it is an irreplaceable, mindbogglingly expensive vintage car and drives it to it's absolute limits! Perfection

[@johnsayles4316]

Also almost zero safety in design.

[@MrGoat73]

The two handed gear-lever & handbrake start, the noise, the loose swinging starting handle, the commitment & THOSE GEAR CHANGES! He really wasn’t fucking about. Absolutely legendary runs

[@divid3dbyZero]

Love seeing this car. Mostly because the driver (at least the last 2 years) drives it like he's trying to set a REAL time.

[@jcgabriel1569]

He is trying to set times that would put more modern cars to shame, and he somehow succeeds! In 2017, he's faster than a 1960s 4wd hillclimb car, and in 2019, he's faster than an Aston Martin DB4GT from 1961!

[@joshschneider9766]

Julian Mazjub is a modern world champion. he would never and I mean never drive this car any other way. he'd simply take the day off of you tried to get him to.

[@dougauzene8389]

STILL Driven In Anger! Not A Static lnvestment! BRAVO!

[@Watchmedome3017]

This car gave me goosebumps!! This is so epic. This makes you imagine watching a race back then seeing 30!of those cars in one track going at it.

[@jcgabriel1569]

Races during this car's heyday would be a riot. Imagine the sound of these straight-8 Bugattis type 35 and 51 (the type 51 looks the same as the type 35 only with a slightly different engine and sound and about 20 more hp), plus the straight-8 Alfa Romeo Monzas, and the straight-8 Maserati 26M. If you're going to choose which of the cars sound the best, it would take you years to make your final choice!

[@jimzucker]

I finally i was able to hear see a 35b screaming. It made me smile to see someone smashing that throttle. The sound is fantastic and it make you understand why these cars were incredible 90 years ago even more than how they're today. I had the luck to sit in one but not to drive around and it always had been my dream car.

[@Butterbean32]

This thing was amazing, the way it took off the line really took me off guard as well hah

[@manureuter]

Fantastique, jamais vu un pilote utiliser la quintessence d’une Bugatti de cette façon, ce Monsieur, il l’a pilote comme un champion des années 20-30 ... une sacrée maîtrise et en plus le moteur prend des tours !-) encore et encore ...

"Electric cars are faster!!!!!1111" And yet, this small and slow 90 year old bugatti was more spectacular than all of these washing machines during the FoS in Goodwood.

[@charlesfoster141]

Fantastic, wonderful! I doubt that Jay Leno could outdrive this old fellow. This is a terrific performance in an incredible classic race car. Bugatti then and now are terrific cars ahead of their time. Which of these would you choose: this 90 year old Bugatti or a new one? They cost about the same!

[@jcgabriel1569]

I think I'll go for the old ones. The original Bugattis weren't what you would call "ahead of their time", even in their heyday in the 1920s-1930s. They, for example, still use cable-operated brakes when everyone else had started using hydraulic brakes. But the old Bugattis had an aura of elegance in them, coupled with pretty solid performance (they are not the fastest cars in the racing grids, but by God they could give a solid fight!)

[@madhut3042]

Beautiful

[@user-jr6ic3xm9y]

After all the research I've done on Bugatti's racing history and development history in general, I'm in love with their old cars. They were state of the art and advanced as well as innovative for their time and are still to this day. But I feel more soul and passion from Bugatti's 1950 and lower cars. The Bugatti Type 35 is my favorite Bugatti ever.

[@roverwaters3875]

actually they were not "state of the art and advanced" innovative yes

[@carlosmartinezespinosa8910]

Amazing car, and AMAZING SOUD. THANKS.

You see that thing on speed and you immediately know how dangerous racing in the old days must have been. Fucking brilliant video!

[@jcgabriel1569]

My request!!! When I requested this, saying that I'd like to see the Bugatti on other angles, I'm not disappointed! and the sound, the sound of the Bugatti type 35 is one of the most unexplainable car sound, yet it really doesn't matter it sound great, and loud! And the slide at 2:39 is rather hairy!

[@TucsonDude]

Talk about vehicular immortality! This car is still doing burnouts while every single one of it's builders are nothing but faded memories and dust in the wind.

[@ZeroTheHeroGOAT]

The looks is perfect!

[@jcgabriel1569]

You should keep in mind that the Bugatti Type 35 is built originally in 1924, so streamlining is something not done, or even properly understood at the time. But if you're to compare it with the other GP cars in 1924, the Bugatti is much better looking by some margin. As far as I know, the original Type 35s attracted quite a crowd when they are revealed at their first race, the 1924 French GP at Lyon.

[@joshschneider9766]

Also keep in mind that streamlining isn't done so we can enjoy the looks either.

I think we stopped living close to death in this modern era back then even with the slower speeds compared to our modern race vehicles that we have now if you smash into a barrier at 120 because you committed a line error back then you were done gone finished but people respected those that followed the racing community I'm not trying to marginalize the danger modern Racers are still in but back then it wasn't really seen as dangerous so much it was seen as touching a tiny piece of immortality at the price of up to an including your life and that's what made it so amazing I have some understanding how to drive line and track etiquette and knowing the risks I would gladly get behind the wheel of one of those machines with the proper training bearing in mind that most people that did didn't have that training they learned as they went and if they're learning curve wasn't steep enough well they just died or lost their legs or wound up in a sanitarium for the rest of their lives in a broken body. Much respect to Julian and all who compete in any race or time trial or exhibition in these irreplaceable timeless pieces of art.
