In 1952 Trenkel started to race with Glöckler-built Porsches. So I will try 1951.

I´ve got to be hard to Mr. "1061 points and counting". ;)

The photo shows the car at an event that did NOT take place in 1951.

One more guess.

No.

Sorry.

OPEN FOR ALL AGAIN.

But now I do not only want to know the correct year, which would be far too easy.

I also want to know the specific event, where the puzzle photo was shot.
