Veritas?

Not Veritas - but you hit the correct country.

MG TA by Mölders?

grobmotorix · March 20, 2015, 03:58:20 PM

This is not a MG.

It is a German car, driver and racetrack.

Wanderer?

grobmotorix · March 22, 2015, 02:45:17 PM

Good idea, however not really correct.

But there is a distant connection to Wanderer...

Wendax · March 22, 2015, 03:25:08 PM

DKW?

grobmotorix · March 22, 2015, 03:32:25 PM

Exactly.

But this is not enough information to lock it for you...

Wendax · March 22, 2015, 04:29:31 PM

Was the race a hillclimb?

grobmotorix · March 22, 2015, 05:01:54 PM

No - it raced at the AVUS!

Wendax · March 22, 2015, 05:08:57 PM

Gerhard Macher 1933

Is it this one (www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=20965) with a streamline body?

grobmotorix · March 22, 2015, 05:23:11 PM

LOCKED for you.

Not 1933.

And the car has a name..

Wendax · March 22, 2015, 06:02:20 PM

In 1937 Gerhard Macher started with #11 again. It seems to have been the Zoller racecar (http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=8756) with a streamline body, nicknamed Kreissäge (circular saw).

grobmotorix · March 23, 2015, 02:03:44 AM

Now you have it!

QuoteBut there is a distant connection to Wanderer...

Well, that DKW connection was only related to Gerhard Macher

Its official name was "M-Wagen"
