Re: 1939 3.0L twin-supercharged v12: 485hp and owned by...hitler?!?
The autobahn record cars were much faster and more purpose built. You can add atleast 100mph to the speed of these "Silver Arrows" and you would be starting to get into the Autobaun car's 'hood. There is film of one of them getting air ~285mph-295mph...they didn't find the engine block. Cross wind for the lose. The Germans (Nazi period) also held all the drag records well into 60s. Crazy stuff back then. Hot Rod has done some small articles about the drag side of those programs. I think they held quickest/fastest AWD until the mid 80s.
