Has anyone ever seen the OPEL Calibra Touring Car on TV Before? I saw it in the German Touring Series on Speedvision, and it looks pretty neat It was racing against a Mercedes, and it was a pretty good battle

primera man's pic is a Opel Astra Coupe V8, actually racing the DTM series.

Animal's pic, is a R/C car with the Opel calibra body. The Calibra raced the DTM series few years ago. The series was also known as ITC. Those cars don't race anymore (the calibras). It was V6, and I think 4wd, not really sure on this.

Here is a pic of one of the cars racing the dtm now.
