It looks fast!
Who designed and built it? Which engine was fitted? Who drove it? When was that?

Ein Henschel zieht am Berg und ein Mercedes
an den Türen. (and an attempt of a translation):
A Henschel in rushing up the hill, wheras in a Mercedes wind is rushing through the doors. c/o norberthanke

It is a Neander monoposto at the 1931 Hohensyburg race, Kurt C. Volkhart at the wheel. The engine was a 1096 cc JAP V2 engine.

Apart from one point, I can only add to the description that the rather rare water-cooled version of the JAP-V2 was used here.
Wendax, this is your next point.
