Flat out on the Autobahn?
You are kidding right?  How much do you expect out of a flat head four?
Were you guys raiding the clinic and feeding it nitrous?  Even then...
Um-no.  LOL
-------------------------------------------
I was driving an officer to a remote field site and it's what he wanted. It 
towed a water tank trailer because the radiator leaked and a replacement 
wasn't available. I was told the Jeeps had some J C Whitney performance 
components because Europe was starved for parts to compensate for the demand 
and cost of Vietnam. At first we had some civilian vehicles such as a Chevy 
Suburban but going 100 MPH everywhere and flying off sports car corners used 
them up. F1 racing simulates German back roads, some built for foot traffic 
by Romans.

The troops mostly stayed on base and had money to burn on vehicles, cameras, 
stereos (and drugs). I was a rare exception who could go out because I 
understood German and the 120 road signs we had to learn to get a drivers 
license. Glatteisgefahr?
