The home of Touring Car and Saloon Car Racing on reddit.


Touring Car racing is a form of motorsport which utilises modfified road-going vehicles. In contrast to GT racing, traditionally the road-cars represented are affordable every-man family vehicles. The appeal of touring car racing is in the wide variety of cars involved and the close, fast-paced racing.

All respectful discussion and discourse about any forms of touring car racing is on-topic here.

New to GT racing, need some guidance

Hello community,

I am new to racing and really enjoyed watching the SCCC Grand Prix de Trois-Rivières. I have a few questions that I would really appreciate if someone could answer.

  1. Why are cars like Mustang GT racing against cars like Civic Si? That seems like an extremely unfair race where Mustang GT, Porsche and AMG GT were leading the entire race.

  2. I noticed a lot of cars are FF. I would have assumed that AWD is heavier so maybe due to weight they were not selected, but why not go with FR? Wouldn't they be better at providing traction?

  3. A lot of the cars are just similar (for example I saw most cars were Audi RS3). In that case, what differentiates the teams? Why go with Audi RS3 when you can go with AMG GT and compete for the top position?

Thank you for your time. I really appreciate it.

best dtm races to watch on YouTube?

Pretty much what the title asks. DTM has a huge archive on their official channel of highlights from 2000 to 2010 and the complete librarry of full races from 2012 to 2020 (and the present GT3 era.

I tend to love the second Class One era, so here's mine so far:

2013 Lausitzring

2014 Zandvoort

2016 Spielberg Race 2

2017 Norisring Race 2

What are yours?
