Ultimatecarpage.com update (12-07-06)

Dear Ultimatecarpage.com visitor,

Although Porsche's racing record is without equal, single seater success still eludes the German company. The company's found Dr. Ing. Ferdinand Porsche however, was responsible for one of the most legendary Grand Prix cars ever; the Auto Union Type C. Designed for rules that only dictated a maximum weight and minimum width, the Auto Union packed a 520 bhp V16 engine. It was the fruition of two years of hard work and in 1936 dominated international racing in general and the company's big rival Mercedes Benz in particular. Despite sporting the revolutionary mid-engined layout, the Type C has gone into history as one of the most difficult to drive well; only the highly talented Bernd Rosemeyer fully mastered the 'silver arrow.' Both racing accidents and the War aggression have destroyed all but very few of the Auto Unions remaining today, which only helped them to gain a mythical status. This coming February Christie's will have the very rare opportunity to auction a D Type Auto Union. Despite not being as outrageous or successful as the C Type, it is expected to sell for over $10 million and break the current auction record.
To give you an insight why the Auto Unions are so highly regarded, we have taken a closer look at technical innovations and racing record of the Type C.
For our loyal supporting members we have also taken the time to expand our wallpaper section, which now contains 100 exclusive high resolution beauties, including one of the Auto Union. Not a supporting member yet? All the benefits and details can be found here.

No(r)way.
I have been Supporting Member for six months now, and I can guarantee you the exclusive feeling you will have after becoming a Supporting Member.. Everywhere I go, people turn and look after me, I can actually hear them whisper: "oh.... he must be a SM..! " after I have passed them.

Not do you only get the super cool wall papers, but you also get a super-cool SM section which is very exclusive, and purely for Supporting Members. Hekk, I even managed to win a Supporting Members avatar competition in there

The other supporting members are ultra cool to!
You get friends for life...

And for those of you who has NOT seen the pics of Rocks mom...
Yeah... They are in the SM section!... and she is dressed "well"

Life is smiling to Supporting Members

At least now you know exactly what you are missing out on.
