In 1979, the Rennsport Trophae (Racing Trophy) was introduced for the cheaper original series protagonists, the Group 2 and 4 cars. During common testing sessions at Circuit Paul Ricard, 935 passed them on the long Mistral straight. Especially the Porsche 935 Turbo outpowered F1 cars. These fast and spectacular turbocharged cars with wide fenders and wings had many fans. In 1977, Group 5 cars were admitted into the series, making the series better supported with Gr.5 cars than the World Championship of Makes they were intended for. Races were run separately as big Division 1 (for 2 to 4 liter) and small Division 2 (under 2 liter) in a sprint format. In these years, the same or similar cars were also entered in the European Touring Car Championship. The DRM began in 1972 as a Group 2 touring car and Group 4 GT racing series. It is the predecessor of the current DTM as Germany's top national series. Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft (translated as German Racing Championship) or simply DRM as it was known, was a Touring car and Sportscar racing series.
