From the production-based beginnings of 1984 to the modern GT3 era, German Tin-Top Theatre tells the full story of DTM: one of Europe's most dramatic, technically ambitious, and constantly reinvented racing championships.

Born from German touring car culture, DTM became a public battleground for some of the world's most famous automotive names. BMW and Mercedes-Benz turned the M3 and 190E into icons. Audi disrupted the order with quattro power. Alfa Romeo invaded Germany with the 155 V6 TI and shocked the championship. Opel climbed to the summit with the Calibra. Mercedes, Audi, and BMW later rebuilt the series through the silhouette and Class One eras before GT3 machinery reshaped its identity once again.
