Overview[edit | edit source]
NSU Race Fox, Dolphin
After winning the world championship and the German
championship in 1953, the NSU Race Fox was optimized further. Engine power was
increased by 2 hp, the weight was reduced by 3 kg and the streamlined wind
tunnel-tested cladding of the Type Dolphin model was fitted, increasing the
maximum speed by 8 km/h to 177 km/h. In a total of nine races in 1954, Hollaus
achieved first place seven times on the NSU Race Fox and became the first
Austrian to win the motorcycle world championship (in the up to 125 cc class).
