description: Bernd Rosemeyer driving an Auto Union, c1937-c1938. This streamlined vehicle designed by Ferdinand Porsche was driven by Bernd Rosemeyer to set several world speed records for cars of engine capacities of less than 8000cc in 1937. He was killed in 1938 when, attempting to regain the record from Mercedes, his Auto Union crashed on the Frankfurt-Darmstadt Autobahn at 270 mph.

I would say it's a Swastika...

The Problem with the Swastika is that 99.9% of people do NOT know what it Actually symbolises !!!!!

Fuck All to do with Hitler.

I would suggest anyone thinking they know what it stands for go and have a look on the Net.

You might just Surprise your self. I know i was when i found out some time ago.

hmm well i see where your coming from Russ but I think you might want to check up yourself a little bud :oops:

you will find that despite its religous/historical origins In 1920 the swastika was appropriated as a Nazi symbol, and has since then become a controversial motif. In the Western world, it is this usage as a symbol of Nazism that is most familiar, and this political association has largely eclipsed its historical status in the East.

so explains its placement stuck there on a german motor EVERYTHING to do with Hitler

russmini - August 29, 2007 08:24 PM (GMT)
No Oops there mate.

You had a look and found out pretty much the origins, it was adopted by Hitler because of it's Meaning, which you can't really blame him for.
Unfortunatly as you say the Western civilasation has grown up presuming/thinking it's a Hitler thing and it stands for something Nasty.

Oh Well, it's such a shame they Don't teach these kind of things in Schools, so perhaps 60 Years after the End of the War, we can get back to the True Assocition of things like this.


:thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:

monty - August 29, 2007 09:45 PM (GMT)
naa itll never happen mate everyone has grown up with the nazi association (well unless they are way over 80odd anyhow) and itll stick forever now skinheads carry it on today as a white power thing and so on itll go..........


jeez this is all abit in depth/political for us lol

Stone Cold Spider 3:16 - August 30, 2007 02:28 AM (GMT)
geee i didnt think i would start all this... damn......
sorry for hijacking ur thread matt :(

russmini - August 30, 2007 07:10 AM (GMT)
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


See we can be all Grown Up about things. Not just Little Boys with Toy Cars !!!!!!

And i agree Andy, but i'd even go as far as saying, unless your from a certain religeous area, most of the population would think it's a Nazi thing, especially as you said, the White Power thing and Skinhead assocition.

Like i said before, Oh Well.... You never know... One day maybe.


:thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:

Stone Cold Spider 3:16 - August 30, 2007 08:50 AM (GMT)

The original symbol was called the Flyfot,and it faced the other direction.I'm not 100% certain,but I think the symbol was of middle-eastern origin,possibly Indian.
