Germany tourism part 1: Mercedes museum

Tuesday, May 26, 2009

After a (too) long summer break from the blog, I'm thinking it's time to post up some pics from my trips and race days lately. First up something really cool - The Mercedes-Benz museum in Stuttgart.

Museum or space station - you tell me. Really awesome.

However, back in the days there's not a lot that make you go "Oh, that's Sci-Fi". Anyway, it is pretty amazing to see how cars and trucks were invented and developed starting in the late 1800th century.

Racedrivers of the time were depicted as hard. Really hard.

Ladies choice - still the same today!

Poster featuering Silver Arrow, driven by Juan-Manuel Fangio and Karl Kling.

Very nice ride.

Pretty amazing line-up. A lot of motorsports heritage in MB for sure.
