This still is it, but some hours later
The D19 is almost the same car, just with the standard body.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanomag_Rekord
The racing type had no special name, it was derived from the standard D19, but was just called the "Hanomag Rekord".
Hanomag being "Hannoversche Maschinen Aktien-Gesellschaft"
Buddahaid was first and takes the cake.
"How Hitler thwarted Hanomag
In February 1939, exactly 75 years ago, the Hanomag racing car was celebrated for its successes in Dessau - then it disappeared into oblivion, and the original was destroyed in the war. It was built by Jewish designers."
(Translation by Google)
Able to go 165 km/h with a 1.9 l Diesel engine, which is said to have been more quiet than a gasoline engine.
