N° 158 Govers / van Hoevelken on Kaiser, undergoing the breaking and starting test. Cars will have to accelerate as fast as possible for 200 metres from a standing start, and then pull up in the shortest possible distance, for the cars have to keep a line between the axles. Rallye Monte Carlo 1951.
At the 1951 Rallye Monte Carlo, the Kaiser driven by Govers and van Hoevelken, bearing number 158, is positioned for the breaking and starting test. On the wet pavement, the dark sedan must accelerate for 200 metres from a standing start and then pull up in the shortest possible distance. To the side, lattice-like towers mark the course, while in the background, a crowd of spectators in period coats and hats huddles under umbrellas behind a barrier of hay bales.
