iris123 20,979 Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) 4 time speedway world finalist and 3 time European longtrack champ https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josef_Hofmeister_(Motorsportler) video of Josef winning a meeting on his home track in his last season https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wqy1T_AsZTc But what really got me started was the great link to all the photos on the technische museum wiens website.There are some wonderful pics of Hofmeister,Kamper,Seidl etc on tracks.But if you look further there are also pics speedway from 1952-70s and of Sterling Moss and a female motorbike racer from the 30s Anny Dein and a lot more http://www.technischesmuseum.at/motorsport-in-oesterreich/person/articleid/1707 Of course when Hofmeister finished his career he didn't go on to race cars,but interestingly planes and was 3 time German champ Edited December 12, 2015 by iris123 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Split 177 Posted December 13, 2015 Germany's best ever? Yes, he probably was but no World Championship title to show for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted December 13, 2015 Germany's best ever? Yes, he probably was but no World Championship title to show for it Debatable - Josef Hofmeister or Egon Muller. On my own thoughts I would put Muller comfortably ahead. But I am not going into any details so don't ask me to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
