The Fastest Race in the World - 1937 AVUS-Rennen - Assetto Corsa

Purpose-built Streamlined cars and a corner affectionally named the “Wall of Death”. That would peak 400,000 spectator's interest in what became the Fastest Race in the World for almost 50 years, only eclipsed by the Indianapolis 500 in 1985. Auto Union and Mercedes both fitted cutting-edge 'streamlined' bodywork to their cars and the course at AVUS had a 43-degree high-banked brick covered corner added, to ensure speeds would be the fastest of all time. The historical accounts today read as something like a science fiction novel. Hold on, and don't stray above the white painted lines!
