Abarth 850 TC of 1961 was configured as a small sports car, perfect for everyday use as much as for circuit racing.
Carlo Abarth transformed a family car like the Fiat 600 into a racing beast which, with its numerous victories, definitively elevated the name of the Turin workshop to the Olympus of motoring. The Abarth 850 TC proved to be one of the most fortunate conversions in Carlo Abarth’s career. Presented in February 1961, the 850 TC adopted the mechanical layout of the Fiat 600 D: thus we find the four-cylinder engine of 767 cm3, to which the bore (62. 5 mm) and stroke (69 mm) were increased, raising the displacement to 847 cm3. The adoption of new pistons improved the compression ratio, which reached 9. 2:1. Also the more capable camshaft, the Solex carburettor of 32, as well as a new air filter, a different crankshaft and an exhaust designed for sporting use. All of this allowed the 850 TC to reach a top speed of 140 km/ h, not inconsiderable for a small family car of the time. Consequently, the adoption of a new braking system became necessary, with discs instead of drums on the front wheels. In keeping with the sportiness on the outside, inside the Abarth 850 TC was characterised by elegant Jaeger instrumentation and a three-spoke alloy sports steering wheel.
Carlo Abarth created the perfect weapon for competition: the Abarth 850 TC. The on-track successes soon followed; the small Abarth models triumphed in gruelling endurance races and the victories of the 850 TC were quickly echoed by its evolutions, such as the 1000 TC and the Radiale. One of the most famous feats is the 500-kilometre race of 1961, held on the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring in Germany. To celebrate this milestone, a special series was produced named “Fiat Abarth 850 TC Nürburgring”
