Simeone Foundation Events: Bugatti Day, John Fitch to be Honored
On September 25th, the Simeone Foundation will celebrate Bugatti with a driving exhibit of two very special Bugattis, a Type 35 in excellent original condition, and the winner of the Le Mans 24 hour race in 1937, the famous T57 “Tank”. Both cars will be demonstrated, but do check the latest information on their website. The Foundation is close to the Philadelphia Airport, easy to find and a wonderful place to see and hear Bugattis, live.
In addition, John Fitch, a great American race driver, car constructor and race track designer, has been selected as the recipient of the third “Spirit of Competition” Award, to be presented Wednesday, October 20th at the annual dinner at the Museum.
