Yeah, like I posted on the first page, I saw the entire 2010 DTM and BTCC seasons on Speed this summer. DVR FTW.

I like these old screamers:

I think it is on during weird times of the week. Something like midnight or early Saturday mornings maybe? I remember that I'd usually have to set my DVR to catch it so I could watch it after work or on the weekends.

Also, DTM is quite different from what it used to be. The current formula is like a German version of NASCAR.

Bring back the days off too much power, non existent mechanical grip with no downforce.

I would be happy if they just ran a sort of "historical" DTM series where you could see E30's, Alfa's, Merc's, and Ford's curb hopping and going two-wide into a corner - that's when DTM was at its peak. You don't see aggressive, balls-out driving like that anymore (sans maybe Kamui Kobayashi!) where there is literally no thought put into what condition the car is in after the race.

DTM hasn't been interesting since Audi prepped their D1 V8s - still with the freaking oak dash in there - and their three cars won everything over and over again in first, second and third place. Good times.
