Those were the days, money, aerodynamics made in wind tunnels, super powerefull engines, weight saving alloys.
GP racing was the uncontested pinacle of motor-sport.
Till the 1980s GP racing won't see such greatness again.

Bah. A car is only as fast as it's driver.

The defining factor of 'greatness' is not the car, but the driver.

It's the hole, not parts that count.

Besides the mid engined AU could only truly be handled by Rosemeyer and his replacement Nuvolari.
