-JdK- More pics from the Technisches Museum Wien, this time the 1936 Swiss Grand Prix. Jimmy Guthrie represented Norton; his good friend Stanley Woods brought a Velocette. Other riders showed up on very serious machinery that included a compressor-BMW. All of which didn't help really as Jimmy came first on a Norton in both the 350cc and 500cc class.
