The old DTM was great, when they changed the rules to more liberal in around 93? Alfa Romeo came and "sweeped the floor" With the germans
I like those Extreme touring cars, and those from the 80`s who where more standard.
They did so much Extreme stuff, one of my favorites are in the Wild days of BTCC when Ford used the Mondeo With V6, they tilted the engine backwards and down to lower it, so the rear cylinder bank lies horizontally I think.
But since it was front Wheel drive, the engine was in the way of the drive shaft.
NO problem!, the driveshaft goes through the middle of the engine block inbetween the cylinder banks in the V!
Now thats racing! Everybody drove With different engines and ideas!
