Good to see the M-B "Silberpfeil" in action :thumbs: The "Health & Safety" mob :clown: would have had kittens with that one :hahaha:
Check out the spectators standing on the track intimately close to the action :supz:
Shot of another M-B Silver Arrow :smokin: with some interesting stats about this one:
1937 Mercedes Benz "Silberpfeil", churning out 595 HP :supz: out of a Straight 8 SuperCharged 5.6 litre engine :drool: in a 751 kg car :smokin: on those skinny tyre :119:
... without a roll cage or other safety devices :notworthy:
From reading the tales and seeing the pics, this guy must have been fast as fook (Nuvolari):
A genuine racing hero of the highest order! :smokin: He made out-dated P3's and 158 Alfetta's do things they had no right too. Beating the Merc's at Nurburgring in 1935 was astounding!
