Touring Car Racing's Golden Age | Full Story [Documentary]

DTM's Group A era was peak touring car racing. Even at the height of the championship’s popularity it remained un-polished, much to the dismay of organisers, and to me it represents so much of what I love about motorsport. The cars may not have been the fastest in the world, but some of the drivers certainly were, and what exciting racing it was!

Full Story is an automobilistic series with each video containing all previous videos on a single topic, compiled into a single marathon video. This video contains a few new sections, but if you recognise parts, its (probably) not deja vu. Regardless of how much or little you have seen before, I hope you enjoy!
