Well done - it looks to have been pretty cold and wet.
The car sounded great and you have shown how well a Triple-M car can go.

Agreed, sound is very nice. The tyres seem to do their job very well. |

Yea, looks too cold and possibly icy for me ! When I bought my PA in 1958 it had a very nice plaque on the dashboard relating to the Gross Glockner High Road, and I have often wondered whether my little car was there for the opening of the road in August 1935. Or possibly a previous owner found it on a market stall in the Portobello Road at sometime ! Who knows.

Hi, I use a drift action cam. It has an external microphone with 2 meter of wire. I put the mic in a piece of cloth between the tank and the bodywork.......... just above the exhaust!.
Just discovered more nice sound from a youtube film made by a spectator at the start, go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82zfomWfIJE The Dutch MG contingent starts at 18 minutes and 05 secondes.
If you go to the official website of the event http://www.grossglockner-grandprix.de/ there are period movies. You see half way the 1935 movie a pointed tail MG racing by of the looks a Q type. At the event we received a reproduction of the 1935 booklet including the period starter list. No less than 4 746cc MG's started. Drivers: Walter Wustrow from Vienna; Bobby Kohlrausch from Munich; George Pohl from Czechia; and I am proud to say Dutchman Harry Herkuleyns from Amsterdam! Unfortunately the movie is not in color, I am sure otherwise we would have seen an orange Q......

Yes, and Bobby Kohlrausch did not bad with his MAGIC MIDGET, as he made 4th best time in the total results, and that with only 750cc !! Gerhard
