hybrid 1043 Report post Posted April 4, 2014 Im sure he wont mind if I post these here as there seems to be a lot of interest. Philip Island Classic - Australia and photo shoot just before it was packed up into the container. The front & rear bumpers, bonnet and boot are all carbon fiber. It is a true DTM spec car and can be seen in the video at the bottom back on the DTM circuit. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted April 7, 2014 I have watched the vid of Conrad's car from the BMW Festival Of Motor Racing many, many times (it's the Red Tube equivalent of car porn for me) and only just noticed the incident on the first corner after the rolling start involving the Whittakers Sierra up the inside, briefly seen out of the side and rear windows. That could so easily have spun around and into this amazing car. Thankfully it didn't, as that would have really been a crying shame after all that hard work to bring the car to this immaculate standard. Loving the Old DTM vids as well, jeez that really was a ferocious series. Surprising any of the cars survived a season from the looks of those highlights!
