DTM cars at Le Mans?

[F1boat]

I know that the idea is a bit silly, but given the fact that the DTM cars are faster or equal to the GT cars and the fact that Mario Theissen has called the DTM a GT championship, would you lile to see the DTM cars at the Le Mans 24 Hours race?

DTM regulations are completely different to the ACO.

Or do you mean seeing those models?

GT class, IMHO, should be the exotic 2-door sports cars like Ferraris and Porsches. Seems a bit funny having BMW M3s when they were in ALMS/IMSA even though they're competitive.

Family based models should be Touring cars.

But for sure it would be an interesting sight seeing those cars doing the full track.

DTM probably needs to be back at Spa.

They used to run the full Nordschleiffe up until the mid-90s. Some years ago Opel and Audi used to compete at the Nurburgring 24hrs adapted from DTM cars.

I meant DTM cars to be allowed as another class. I know that it is not likely, but would you like to see them racing at Le Mans?

but it just doesnt seem right when you think about what races at le mans.

The more the merrier I suppose, but I'd rather see the Japanese Super GT cars.

I think the DTM vs Super GTs would be an interesting race. Similar spec cars, IIRC.

Hmm that's interesting. Wonder how difficult it would be to streamline them to similar performance.

I'd love to see them up against each other.

Pity, I haven't seen the Super GT cars in action.

And a few AV8 Holdens and Falcons.
