DUCATI MC Österreich DUCATI MC Österreich Newsletter 6/2014 von Franz H.G. Reisner Rupert Hollaus Ausstellung im Volksheim in Traisen Am 11. September 1954 verunglückte beim Abschlusstraining in Monza in der zweiten Lesmokurve - nach neuem Rundenrekord mit 149,9 km/h in der Vorrunde - der bis dato einzige österreichische Motorradweltmeister Rupert Hollaus tödlich. Im Gedenken an den NSU-Werksfahrer der 1931 in Traisen geboren wurde, findet aktuell eine Ausstellung im Volksheim Traisen statt. Gezeigt werden historische Rennmaschinen bis 1960, einmaliges Bildmaterial des Weltmeisters, persönliche Gegenstände und Zeitungen, Zeitschriften, Broschüren und Plakate. Die Ausstellung im Volksheim Traisen ist bis zum 21. September in der Zeit von 10 bis 20 Uhr im täglich geöffnet. Der Eintritt ist frei. Weitere Details findet Ihr unter dem Link bei den „sonstigen Terminen“ unserer Homepage www.ducatimc.at. Die nachfolgenden Bilder zeigen Rupert Hollaus im Jahr 1954 auf der Werks-NSU mit der Startnummer 169 zwischen dem dreifachen Motorrad-Weltmeister Werner Haas (167), der 1956 bei einem Flugzeugabsturz verunglückte, und dem 1975 verstorbenen Hermann Paul Müller (142) vor dem Start auf dem Norisring in Nürnberg sowie den 3-fachen Motorradweltmeister Luigi Taveri mit der NSU von Rupert Hollaus 50 Jahre später beim Start zur Paradefahrt beim ersten Rupert Hollaus Gedächtnisrennen auf dem Salzburg 2004 . Rupert Hollaus wurde 1954 mit 32 Punkten vor Carlo Ubbiali (18 Punkte) und Hermann Paul Müller (15 Punkte) Weltmeister in der 125cm³-Klasse. Teamkollege Werner Haas erreichte mit 11 Punkten den 5 Platz, siegte aber mit 32 Punkten in der 250 cm³-Klasse vor Rupert Hollaus (26 Punkte) und Hermann Paul Müller (17 Punkte). Der 1929 geborene Schweizer Luigi Taveri errang eine Dekade später im Jahr 1964, sowie auch in den Jahren 1962 und 1966, den Weltmeistertitel in der 125-cm³-Klasse für die Marke Honda.

Reisner 7th Classic Twin 500 Am letzten Wochenende im August fand die Classic Twin 500 zum 7. Mal statt. Die Classic Twin 500 ist ein mittlerweile 3-tägiger Härtetest für junggebliebene Motorräder und Enthusiasten, die eine gleichermaßen große Begeisterung für den Motorradsport wie Sinn für Humor teilen. Ins Leben gerufen wurde Classic Twin 500 ursprünglich von Franz H. G. Reisner aus Freude über seine BSA 500 A7 Shooting Star. Nach diesem Motorrad aus dem Jahr 1960 erfolgte seinerzeit auch die Namensgebung für diese Tourenfahrt. Aufgrund des steigenden Interesses wurde das ursprünglich sehr strenge Reglement sukzessive gelockert damit auch etwas jüngeren Motorrädern mit klassischem Charakter eine Teilnahme möglich ist. Heuer nahmen 8 Fahrer mit folgenden Motorrädern teil: Benelli 750 Sei, Ducati Darmah 900, BMW R90S, Norton Commando 850, st 1 Classic Twin 500 im Jahr 2008 Suzuki GS 750, Ducati Mike Hailwood Replica, Yamaha XS 750 und BMW R100RS. Die diesmal von Karl Rappersberger geplante Strecke führte von Melk über Passau nach Český Krumlov und zurück. Genächtigt wurde dabei im Hotel Walschloß in Gattern direkt an der deutsch-österreichischen Grenze nahe Passau. Es gab auch heuer wieder sehr viel Spass, kulinarische Genüsse und allerhand Überraschungen. Dank der guten Fahrzeug- vorbereitung gab es diesmal keine Defekte. Ein gewisser Verbesserungsbedarf bei den Abgaswerten und der Berechnung der erforderlichen Spritmengen wurde lediglich noch bei einzelnen Teilnehmern erkannt. Den Bericht von Christian Jaufer und Bilder von Franz Reisner findet Ihr auf unser Homepage unter http://www.ducatimc.at/Classic%20Twin%20500/Classic%20Twin%20500-7.htm.

Reisner ISLE OF MAN Classic TT und Manx GP Das man bereits nach kurzer Zeit wieder reif für die Insel werden kann, zeigt uns Clubkollege Erich Müllegger, den es auch heuer wieder auf die Isle of Man verschlagen hat. Dabei hat er nicht nur Motorsport in Reinkultur und in seiner ursprünglichsten Form erlebt, sondern auch bemerkenswerte Menschen getroffen. So traf er diesmal Carl Fogarty und den Enkel von Schorsch Meier. Der „Gußeiserne Schorsch“ gewann 1939 als erster Nicht-Brite die Senior-TT mit einem Schnitt von 89,38 mph (143,84 km/h). Neben einem Europameistertitel 1938 fuhr der Bayer aus Mühldorf am Inn sechs deutsche Meistertitel für BMW in der 500 cm³ Klasse ein. Unser 4-facher Ducati – Superbikeweltmeister Foggy fuhr seine beiden TT F1 – Weltmeistertitel etwas später ein, nämlich 1988 und 1989. 1990 verlor die TT den WM-Status und somit gewann er dort „nur mehr“ den TT-F1-FIM Cup. Diese Erfolge errang Foggy allerdings noch vor seinem Markenwechsel zu Ducati für Honda. 1992 stellte Foggy auf der Insel mit einer 750-cm³-Yamaha einen Rundenrekord auf, der erst sieben Jahre später von Jim Moodie auf einer Honda RC45 gebrochen. Für die 60,7 km lange Runde auf dem Snaefell Mountain Course benötigte Fogarty 18 Minuten und 18,8 Sekunden, was einer Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit von 198,93 km/h entsprach. Diese Rennen konnte er jedoch nicht beenden und so siegte damals Phillip McCallen auf Honda, vor Steve Hislop auf Norton und Joey Dunlop auf Honda. Erich reiste übrigens wieder mit Seitenwagen-Weltmeister und TT-Sieger Klaus Klaffenböck, den er wärmstens für diese Reise empfiehlt. Den Bericht und viele Bilder von Erich findet Ihr wie immer auf unserer Homepage www.ducatimc.at.

  • 5. Men of Substance – 1
    5. Men of Substance – 1 When we are young and in the prime of our youth our lives pass so fast that events come and go quickly like today’s daily News. No sooner one event passes, another leaps up to replace it. Only the more dramatic or the humorous for the most part will stick with us. I recently discovered and read an old magazine article written in March 1992 to commemorate the anniversary of the tragic loss of Mike Hailwood. It triggered in me an old memory that I thought I had completely forgotten with the passage of time. Back around 1964/5 I was a member of a UK motorcycle club called The Southend & District MCC. Although I never met them, Bill Ivy and Dave Bickers were also registered members of the same club in compliance with an official UK ACU racing license ruling at that time. The ACU (Auto Cycle Union) was similar to the US. AMA (American Motorcycle Association) in governing all forms of motorcycle sport. We were treated to many a fascinating Club Talk by some quite prominent people of the day such as Charles Mortimer Sr. and Wal Phillips, (a veteran cinder-track speedway rider who was one of the first to develop aftermarket fuel injectors for motorcycles in the UK.), to name but a couple. An Avon Tire representative once came and gave a full presentation on the then newly developing technology of 'Avon Cling' High Hysteresis Tire Compounds. Bert Greeves, founder and owner of Greeves Motorcycles, was also a highly prominent figure along with his long-time friend and business associate, Derry Preston-Cobb, who ran the Greeves subsidiary of Invacar, an independent invalid vehicle factory located next door to the main Greeves factory on One Tree Hill, in Thundersley, Essex.

The Formula 1 car of John Surtees and Mike Hailwood, two world motorsport champions. John Surtees was greatly attached to the SURTESS TS9B # 5, keeping it right up until 1999. This historic F1 car made a name for itself in the streets of Monaco, where it regularly finished among the leaders of the 1966 -1972 editions of the Monaco Grand Prix Historique. The Chevron B16 # 4. No doubt one of the finest prototypes of the 70's. Ascott Collection is proud to have the privilege of offering for sale chassis No. 4, a B16 that is widely known for its authenticity and its history, with participations in the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1970 to its credit: in short, a car that has now acquired considerable rarity value.... Now that historic races have incorporated a new generation of racing cars, Ascott Collection will be exhibiting a 2009 ORECA FLM09 at the Historic Sportscar Racing stand. The HSR hosts a series of historic races on the other side of the Atlantic, including one of the world's finest historic races, the HSR Classic 24 Hours of Daytona. With Lister having relaunched the production of a new series of only 10 Lister Knobblys, Ascott Collection will be offering for sale N° 7, which is ready to race, in its magnificent livery... The gorgeous 1988 MARCH BUICK 86G MOMO will be presented.

  • ACES WILD ACES WILD the Story of the British Grand Prix the STORY of the Peter Miller
    ACES WILD ACES WILD The Story of the British Grand Prix THE STORY OF THE Peter Miller Motor racing is one of the most 10. 3. BRITISH GRAND PRIX exacting and dangerous sports in the world today. And Grand Prix racing for Formula 1 single-seater cars is the RIX GREATS toughest of them all. The ultimate ambition of every racing driver since 1950, when the com­ petition was first introduced, has been to be crowned as 'World Cham­ pion'. In this, his fourth book, author Peter Miller looks into the back­ ground of just one of the annual qualifying rounds-the British Grand Prix-which go to make up the elusive title. Although by no means the oldest motor race on the English sporting calendar, the British Grand Prix has become recognised as an epic and invariably dramatic event, since its inception at Silverstone, Northants, on October 2nd, 1948. Since gaining World Championship status in May, 1950 — it was in fact the very first event in the Drivers' Championships of the W orld-this race has captured the interest not only of racing enthusiasts, LOONS but also of the man in the street. It has been said that the supreme test of the courage, skill and virtuosity of a Grand Prix driver is to w in the Monaco Grand Prix through the narrow streets of Monte Carlo and the German Grand Prix at the notorious Nürburgring. Both of these gruelling circuits cer­ tainly stretch a driver's reflexes to the limit and the winner of these classic events is assured of his rightful place in racing history.

  • Montesa History
    History ORIGINS The history of Montesa goes back to 1944, when a young Barcelona industrialist, Pere Permanyer Puigjaner, 33, began to produce his own gas generators for automobiles, thus opening a new branch of activities in the motorcycle industry. The gas generator industry was characteristic of Spanish life during the post-Civil War period. During the Second World War, 1939-1945 and during the time of Spanish reconstruction after its devastating civil war from 1936-39, the shortage of fuel had paralysed Spanish transport in such a way that the application of the gas generator system (an artful procedure for obtaining fuel by burning almond shells) was at that time a virtually magical resource for running cars, trucks and electrical generators. Pedro Permanyer had learned of the performance of vegetable combustion through the business founded by his grandfather, who had devoted his time to the importing and distribution of coal. Carbones Permanyer obtained the raw material from Corsica and Sicily and shipped it to Barcelona aboard its own schooners. Pedro Permanyer Puigjaner was born in Barcelona on 21 July 1911. At the age of 11 he and his family moved to the new family home in the Sant Martí district of Barcelona, where the family firm was located. His involvement in the neighbourhood and his work with local youth and the development of the district earned him the "San Martín de Oro" prize in 1975, awarded by the Municipal District Office for his "international presence". Although for a certain period of time he worked in the family firm under the direction of his father, he soon showed a natural inclination for industry and a passion for mechanics.
