<\/a>ADM-R “Stuck race car”, BJ. 1927<\/p><\/div>\n
As a racing driver, he first drove a car he tuned and modified himself. After a contract with Austro Daimler<\/a> in 1927 he became their most famous driver. On hillclimbs Hans Stuck was considered almost invincible, especially in the ADM-R Stuck racing car, which he called “greyhound” in his memoirs. This car was based on the ADM III Sport, with the ADM-R racing car being lighter and more powerful, and having a sports car body and an oversized steering wheel. Between 1927 and 1930, the “Bergk\u00f6nig” (king of the mountains) achieved 46 victories with 41 daily best times in hillclimb races with this car. In 1929, at the “1st International St. Moritz Automobile Week”, with the Bernina hillclimb as the highlight, he took first place with a course record of 14:58:04 (average speed 66.4 km\/h). In 1930 he even won the European Hill Climb championship.<\/p>\n As a private car, the racing legend Hans Stuck drove an ADM-R with fenders from 1929 \u2013 the “Torpedo<\/a>“. An eye-catcher due to its wooden bodywork, it was powered by a 120 hp aluminium conrod motor with particularly high torque developed by engineer Karl Rabe. Only two of these cars were built.<\/p>\n With the withdrawal of Austro-Daimler from motorsport in 1930, Hans Stuck changed to Mercedes Benz.<\/p>\n In 2019, 90 years after the first Bernina Gran Turismo<\/a>, another hillclimb race took place on the famous course \u2013 now shorter and asphalted, of course. This time Stuck’s son Hans Joachim “Striezel” Stuck, also a racing driver, was present. The fahr(T)raum classic car museum sent him into the race with a car similar to the one his father drove. His time of 5:15:56 was quite impressive. Only Ronnie Kessel was faster, in Clay Regazzoni\u00b4s Ensign F1 racing car from 1976.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can admire a ADM-R Stuck racing car and the “Torpedo” at the Ferdinand Porsche Worlds of Experience in Mattsee near Salzburg.
