Pork Pie;
I'm glad to hear that Rosemeyer's plaque is still there. It's been a long
time since I last saw it!
Regards, Neil Tucson, AZ

Yeap, the datas are correct.
That means 268.7 mph plus 1 percent - this will be a lot of fun....
For Rosemeyer - the plaque is on an Autobahn rest area between Moerfelden
and
Darmstadt to remember his death on the 28th January 1938 - this was 75 years
ago..
