A Californian of Italian descent, Tony raced Corvettes and a Mercedes 300SL in the States before coming to Europe, where, initially driving a WRE-Maserati sports car, he took a win in the Naples GP at Posillipo but achieved little else before returning home.

After persuading his wealthy friend Hugh Powell to provide suitable funding, Settember commissioned Emeryson to build a chassis for the 1962 season, but the driver did not fit the car properly and relationships in the team became strained when no success was achieved. In the event Paul Emery departed before the season was out, and the two Americans formed the Scirocco-Powell team for 1963, using BRM power. The car was attractive but slow, Settember being flattered by an inherited second-place finish in the non-championship Austrian GP, some five laps down.

When Powell finally called a halt to proceedings, Settember continued his racing activities in the US with Lotus 23 and 30 sports cars, and then an AC Cobra, before trying his hand at Can-Am in the late sixties with a Lola T70. He reappeared in the early seventies in the L & M F5000 series between 1972 and 1974, but never seriously threatened the front-runners.
