Question:
As i went looking throught the german showroom,(In Gran turismo) particulary the makers, Audi, had invented a car called the "Auto Union Streamline 37" This is an INREDIBLE peice of work for it's time, seeming 12 years in the future. My real question is, did the first tester die trying to break the worlds' fastest speed record? (By the way,1937 is the same year the Hindenburg went up in flames)
Answers:
Can someone help me figure out whats wrong with my 2002 GTI 1.8T's gearbox?
Ken is right, it is true. The car as I remember was also one of the 1st attempts at a type of mid-rear drive. This car was far advanced for the era in which it was created. I don't recall the specs but I'm sure they are available out there on the WEB somewhere. Anyway this car was incredibly advanced for it's time and some of the technology used in performance and racing cars is still used today so were the lessons learned from the accident. I also recall hearing that there is one left and it's currently housed in Audi's museum.How do you get the shifter knob off a 1997 ford ranger 5 speed.?
Check it out on the WEB if you like stats on cars you will really be impressed by what you find on this car and it's driver. Take care and have fun!
I believe that is true. The first run went OK, he crashed on the second. Daimler-Benz and Auto Union were competing against each other in motor racing. They tried streamliners then and later in the early 1950s D-B also tried streamliners as GP cars.
