Poor Typ A! Definitely NOT the type of corner these cars were designed for; actually, I'm surprised the Typ D took it so easily! As for the C - good and very brave (considering the value) driving to use wheelspin!!!
@@paulcaswell2813 In the video from Zwickau (ruclips.net/video/myxMudtFX6g/видео.html ) he seems to really floor it on the short straight. It looks and sounds (the Doppler effect!) scary as fuck. Fortunately, the cars were already designed to accommodate giant balls, so they did not have to change anything on the car to put him in.
I’ve recently got the Type C - I’ve been collecting 1:18-scale cars for about 20 years and I’ve been lucky enough to get some really nice ones, but that CMC Type C is truly special.
The first time he got stuck there, I thought maybe he just wasn't familiar with the route. The next time I noticed that each time through, the engine was lugging pretty noticeably and suspect that the car might have an especially tall set of gears in it. Maybe it was geared more for SPA versus Monaco??
That Type A is a replica built by a British company from drawings provided by Audi. None of the real Type A's or B's survived Soviet experimentation and use for other projects.

Good grief the sound of a lusty V16 just makes me so happy! I can only imagine the sound at full speed! Today's F1 doesn't even come close with its puny engines and total lack of spectacle!
The type A driver should have slid the damn car around the corner, like Bernd would have. Not to mention it's made out of unobtainium and worth zillions of kopeks. Slide that sucker, like Hans did in the Type C!
@@petrpan5790 Type A had the steering lock problem. Types A and C are V16s, type D (the flatter one) was limited by rules to a 3 litre V12 (same as Mercedes W154).
Du bist ein Schwachmat. Solche Meisterwerke zu fahren braucht unendlich viel Übung...schmale Reifen, krasses Drehmoment. Da macht man nicht mal so aus der Kalten. Außerdem will keiner so ein unbezahlbares Auto schrotten, nur um einen geilen Drift zu riskieren. Sowas wie dein Käfer ist hier als Kraftstoffpumpe verbaut!
Probably it did, but it is normal for these cars to have a latch that could close the gate for the reverse gear, to prevent drivers from accidentally putting it in reverse during a race.
Ich stand dort( links im Bild). Das war irre. 2 Fernverkehrsstraßen abgesperrt ! Die Autos - große Tiere - unbezahlbar. Da driftet man nicht mal eben in die Betonabsperrung und die Leute rein. Mit den neueren Wagen sind die Jungs gedriftet, aber die alten Kisten ... die sind Respekt einflößend. Da lommen echte PS raus, keine Kilowatt.
incredible how many experts here think they could drive better... they probabaly drive their 125hp Opel Astra or VW Passat every day and think they could handle a Auto Union race car. They would end up in a ditch (if they are lucky) or in the next wall. most people complaining wouldnt even find the clutch or the gears.
Well, yeah, if you can catch it. It is noted that with skinny period tyres, and the Auto union's very forward driving position meant that it is very hard to even realize that you actually needed some opposite lock when cornering, and the very torquey engine isn't helping matters.
Oh yeah, the types A (the one that is unable to get round the hairpin turn) and the type C (the one swinging its tail out all the time) had swing rear axles... making it very difficult to know what the back end's gonna do as you slow and and approach a corner, in a race situation...
Liebe Zwickauer! Bitte wiederholt dieses Ereignis! Ich will mal richtige "Musik" hören. Am liebsten jedes Wochenende.

The Type C was driven by none other than Tom Kristensen.
@@flashpeter625 LOL! That says it all :-) Thanks for clarifying.

The Type D had a shorter wheelbase and De Dion rear axle, the latter probably helped it remain stable going around the corner at this speeds.
I'm so happy I have very detailed CMC diecast models of all 3 of these auto unions.
You mean two of the three right... or did CMC create a Typ A just for you?

@@mxrz The only decent Typ A is the Minichamps 1:43. It captures the car very nicely.
God damn, what a squad

Lack of steering lock - no good in Monaco. 😱
The one type C thats missing is the dual rear tired hill climber.
No 5 - the best!
Lecker Autos!

It's good the way Audi have designed their new cars with a styling reference to the Auto Union racing cars of the 1930's

its the type a that didnt get around :P the type d is the "uglier" and worse sounding one ^^

schöner Versuch Troll^^
dich würde es mit so einem Monster an der nächsten Kurve in 1000 Teile zerfetzen
Drive the 3th place car Ralf Schumacher?? Every round the same problems !!
No, that was Latifi.
WTH!! Type A cant turn to the right?
Fahranfänger !
designed for straights, not curves :P
It seems to have a wider turning circle, wider than the hairpin bend it attempts to negotioate.
Lolllllllll😅😂😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Racing…?
It didn’t have rear gear?
No
Probably it did, but it is normal for these cars to have a latch that could close the gate for the reverse gear, to prevent drivers from accidentally putting it in reverse during a race.
Tipo C o mais rápido
They're driving these vintage cars at a place where they really shouldn't be, it's not safe and why risk fucking up these old cars?
Warum kriegt er nie die Kurve?

I would have made the turn with a rear slide
Maybe not in a car worth $$$million!
Yup the only way to turn in type A is heavy throtle and controlled spin
