Ah, but can they run for 24 Hours. I'm actually suprised how close the GT1 cars are to the sprint spec DTMs. Will be interesting to see what the works Astons, Maseratis and Vettes could do. |

How long does a DTM engine have to last? All season? Then they could easily do 24 hours

DTM chassis are stripped to to their bare minimum, and ballast used for the sprint races. In endurance spec all of the components have to be beefed up. Last edited by JAG; 29 Mar 2005 at 14:02. |

DTM cars are limited on horsepower (4 liter V8 producing 470 hp) compared to FIA GT cars (V12 producing over 600 hp), while both weigh around 1100 kg.
