This second season of the ATCC is now based on the not-so-famous Group A rules. Created in 1983, this has always been on the shadows of group B rules, but one could argue that this is the more important class. Cars like the BMW M3, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Lancia Delta Integrale, Mercedes 190E Cosworth, Ford Sierra RS Cosworth, Ford Escort Cosworth and so many others only exist because of these set of rules, which required the cars to be sold to the public as a homologation requirement. At least 2500 of cars directly linked to the racers had to be sold for us, common people. For this reason, many, including me, argue that this is the most relevant racing series ever.
Touring car races are some of the closest and most interesting to watch, with great disputes between drivers. That is all due to the regulations, which require the cars to be based on road-legal cars, and yet they are free enough to go crazy about it.
