 Nuremberg Rally - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nuremberg Rally (officially, Reichsparteitag, literally "national party congress") was the annual rally of the NSDAP (Nazi Party) in the years 1923 to 1938 in Germany.
The Nuremberg race laws which stripped Jews of citizenship and other rights were proclaimed at the 1935 rally as measures to "protect German blood".

 Rally racing - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch
In the past—and until recently in the United States And Canada—most rally courses were not allowed to be scanned prior to the race, and the co-drivers used maps supplied by the organisation.
A rally course consists of a sequence of relatively short (up to about 50 kilometres) timed "special stages" where the actual competition takes place, and untimed "transport stages" where the rally cars must be driven under their own power to the next competitive stage.
Rally cars are thus unlike virtually any other top-line racing cars in that they retain the ability to run at normal driving speeds, and indeed are registered for street travel.
