About The Author

Roland Seiter

Roland Seiter, born in 1956, is a freelance journalist and author. From 1990 to 2022, he was Head of Media and Communications for the city of Baden-Baden. He has had a keen interest in historic vehicles since his youth. His garage contains a 1955 Volkswagen ‘Willi’ and two NSU motorcycles, both also from 1955, as well as a 1960 Kreidler Florett. He also loves convertibles and motorcycles and has a soft spot for pre-war cars. As a true classic car enthusiast, he has many contacts in the scene. When Roland Seiter first heard about the big races in Baden-Baden in 1992, he was hooked. He collected documents, photos and numerous accessories. His extensive collection provided the basis for this book.
