If you do visit, imagine driving ANY type of car on that road at 225+ mph - it is not the straightest section of tarmac in the world, to be sure!
BTW - last I heard, Elly Beinhorn Rosemeyer was still alive, living in a nursing home near Munich. I believe that she is in her mid-90's.

And while the book might be able to be maligned and inaccurate, it does give an insight to the personalities and activities of the time.
How one could not have liked this young man, I don't know. Obviously very talented, daring and carrying a good sense of humour, he is of a type that is sorely missed.
And while it's nice that his widow still survives, what manner of survival is it to be living with the knowledge of what might have been with this man had he not made that fatal decision?

You may find a beautiful answer in the closing pages of her book Allein Flug, in my opinion the best she ever wrote.

I had those final pages translated into Italian. If someone wants them, I'll be happy to email them.
