I think the mid 90's ITC with the 4wd cars was very cool, I used to enjoy watching that, but now the newer cars in the last couple of years with plenty of power and just rwd is also great, its just a shame uk tv coverage is so poor

I like both the old and the new championship. It has always been a spectacular class. I loved the Alfa 155s in the glory days with Larini. The new DTM class has some of the best drivers as well, Schneider, Albers, Aiello, Alesi, Reuter, Winkelhock and Menu. The only downside is the variety of cars. More marques need to step in.

I guess it´s so competitive, like the Braziliam Stock car or American too.

The cars are pretty good, handling, acceleration, and the fucking part i like is that all cars on the track have the same sets. What changes is the body. Just.

DTM cars are different from one another. Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Opel build their own cars.

I'm with Stradale,

Races full of emotion.

That would be great news. DTM needs more marques. The return of Alfa would be great. Maybe it has something to do with the upcoming V8 coupé model, since DTM cars use V8s as well. It might be a nice opportunity for Alfa to focus on that.

I really liked the 80's DTM, the sound of the 10800 rpm M3's was marvelous!!!

I love DTM. Does anyone else notice how crappy the audio is when they air it on speed channel with the translation.

I would love to see a DTM race, possibly in the future. Possibly even drive in the DTM (hah, dreams... )
