The Grossglockner Grand Prix is a great assortment of cars rarely seen anywhere and to see them race up the highest mountain in Austria on a snow flanked, steep winding road is something else.
Seeing these machines fighting gravity against the high-alpine backdrop makes circuit racing seem so tame by comparison.
There was even a supercharged 6.0-liter V16-powered Auto Union Type-C Bergrennwagen (hill racer) on the course (No 83).
In 1938, it clocked the fastest time up the mountain pass.
Other classic marques included Bugatti, MG, Porsche, Lagonda, Marmon, Veritas, Borgward, Alvis, Bentley, Wolseley and others
