The Oldtimer Grand Prix at Nürburgring is a great historic race event, and here, in his characteristic style, artist Ehret captures the cars of the former Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft, the German Touring Car Championship. A BMW 320 Turbo from Team Schnitzer is shown being chased by a BMW M1 and a Porsche 911 Turbo, and it cannot get more mythic than this for lovers of German engineering. A Corvette C3, Alfa GTA, Ford Escort RS and an Opel Commodore GS chase the Bavarian and Swabian Turbos ahead of them. This could easily have been a poster for the DRM, as the use of watercolors was then common among those who painted posters for the European race organizers and car magazines. A few limited edition reproductions remain in Ehret’s Gallery, and worldwide shipping is available.
