Scuderia Ferrari entered three 8C 2900As in the 1936 Mille Miglia. They finished in the top three positions, with Marquis Antonio Brivio winning, Giuseppe Farina finishing second, and Carlo Pintacuda finishing third. It was fifth victory in a row of that race. The 8C 2900A also won the 1936 Spa 24 Hours with Raymond Sommer and Francesco Severi.
In 1936 Tipo C fitted with the troublesome V12 did not live up to expectations, and the 3.8 continued to be used.
