Most of the words are a combo of german and english but "Rennen" is a race or can be used as running. The only real word in there is Rennsport but in this case it has nothing to do with racing. It is the sport of running (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Hi everybody,
in german "Rennsport" is also used for automobile or motorcycle racing. Not only for the athletics.

It loosely translates to "$$$".
