All those cars are beautiful. They look impressive, not old primitive technology. In particular, streamliners look sci-fi even today.

Finest engineering combined with superior craftsmanship, driven by heroes.

Incredible Auto Union V16 Type C Streamline was made in 1937 and looks like a 2030 car with the speed of a current hypercar.

It could go 410 kmh

It's soon 90 years old and ooks even for today futuristic. Maybe from an alternative future.

How this material even exists... 87 years old clip of futuristic Mercedes in a race, feels somehow odd to watch on KZread

There was a plan to build an other banked curve on the opposite of the the track called Südkehre for more high speed but then we all now whats coming next in 1939.... today the Avus is just an ordinary highway with a speedlimit of 100km/h nearly 100 years of motoracing and the prototype of the german Autobahn

Playing grand turismo 4 in 2022 got this powerful car couldnt believe its from 1937 im. Shocked

Played Forza a while ago and had the Type C Auto Union… thought the game was unrealistic because it reached speeds far above 300kmh, only did I know…

Early days of pure Racing

0:37 1:11 beautiful passes!

The Mercedes looks like a spaceship compared to the other cars. I wonder how long it took to get those smooth and seamless curves on those cars.

The Auto Union with its midship engine design was much more modern from the engineering point of view. Made by Porsche btw.

1:22 really insane accelerate

The streamliners were way ahead of their time

0:04 they cut the initial presentation, the speaker actually "Il giovane pilota tedesco Herman Lang ha vinto ad una media oraria di 261 chilometri e settec-ento metri"

Love this track ❤️

Magnifico documentario ! Vetture straordinarie !

These races were really insane !! 👍🇧🇷

Non oso immaginare stare lì a guardare senza tappi

これ80，90年前の映像だよね?!、映像がとてもきれい。 あと壁のようなバンクに突っ込んでいくの怖すぎるだろ…。

I just love how those old rear-engine cars look just like front-engine cars driving backwards :)

I was just getting into that! great vid

Super cool!

Theres a man in the vid with a flat viewing device .maybe an agent from the future.

Long, not really save but.......... I love it!

See, this race had very high safety standards, there were white wooden poles seperating the two long straights, where cars would casually go 200mph.

the type c and the w125 streamliners actually raced. but the w125 streamliners should've been running laps around these guys by now... it was a 270 + mph car.

@jcgabriel1569

Not exactly. The W125 streamliner that did that speed is specially designed for the record breaking runs, it won't be suitable for a race like this.

Just a reminder that at least the streamlined cars here would do 200 down the straights

Looks more like 1957!!!

The look is almost like ‘kinescope’….

In front of who everyone participated in the races then when there was no safety, helmets, reliability of cars, it remains only for him to take off his hat.

Its exciting full couring car and bank cours. Freedom generation is pleasant.

Shame this was in Fascist Germany.

Over 400kmh open cockpit and leather helmets . 🤌🏾

People acting like these cars were futuristic but not really. They’d do 240 in a straight line but would take forever to get there, take forever to brake from that speed, and had zero grip or stability so if anything went even a little bit wrong at that top speed, you’d just instantly die. And that did happen multiple times in this race
