Normally I'd put something like this in the YouTube thread, but I thought this deserved a thread all of its own.
Questionable soundtrack, but amazing footage. Watch it on fullscreen!

oooh, that brings back memories, i have been to some DTM races at the Hockenheimring, that was fantastic motorsport; there were a lot of private drivers back then, as it was affordable .... it is even more exciting, when you have a touring car series with more than two manufacturers, it is a bit boring with Mercedes and Audi these days .... ah, and the soundtrack might sound strange, but fits into that era very well, performed by a cologne band called "BAP". The cologne dialect is not to be understand outside cologne, but the song means "it has been a long time ago" and that fits to that footage .... i'll never forget Gerd Ruch in his Mustang, a car that was the least suitable car for such a series, but he was a true sportsman :
