Oswald Karch

Karch raced on both sides of the German border in the early fifties, and, in common with many other competitors at the time, he drove a BMW-Eigenbau during the 1950 season, but this was replaced with the almost equally ubiquitous Veritas RS two-seater sports.

Apart from appearing in the German Grand Prix in 1953, he enjoyed quite a successful national racing season in 1954, with the elderly sports, and he also took the machine to Morocco to race in the Casablanca 12-hour race, taking sixth place in the hotly contested 751–2000 cc class, sharing the driving duties with one Herr Sterzebecker.
