Default Wahnsinnige Fahrt voraus?

I got a youtube comment on a video, and a guy pointes out that "wahnsinnige Fahrt voraus" means something like "crazy speed ahead". What the ...?

It's like a sigh of relief every time I see these phrases spelt.

Google translates it as "madmen ride ahead", some other one "mad journey ahead", and another as "insane trip ahead". Seems he's right.

yea, this is a correct translation. maybe even "mad/insane speed ahead" in a sense that you are mad/insane cause you do not care about noise and reduction of lifetime of your engines due to the high speed they are running. Surely ordered in an absolute emergency only.

3 x Wahnsinnige Fahrt
In an absolute emergency case, they could connect the e-motors to the main wave and gain one or two extra knots. using the diesel and the e-machine together. But this was not a standard procedure.

I have always played with german audio, since I understand most of it from its resemblence to Norwegian, and the other stuff you just understand from the context, and it adds volumes to the immersion. But insane speed ahead? I just dont see a kaleun utter that.:rotfl:
