European Touring Car Championship 1988 DVD - Description
Now, for the first time on DVD you can relive a gut-wrenching year of touring car history!
In 1988 the battle for ETCC supremacy was mainly between the Cosworths and the BMWs - a sure fire recipe for fantastic racing. The drivers’ and manufacturers’ championships remained undecided until the very final rounds of the season, and this comprehensive review brings you all the greatest highlights!
1988 was not only a benchmark because of it’s high-drama, but it was also the last ever ETCC held until the competition was revived in 2003. In a gargantuan battle, Roberto Ravaglia took his third European Touring Car Championship fending off stiff competition from Steve Soper and Pierre Dieudonné. With epic racing, Ford clinched the manufacturer’s title 13 points above BMW.
Don’t miss the coverage of each action-packed round at Monza, Donington Park, Estoril, Jarama, Dijon, Vallelunga, Spa, Zolder, Silverstone, Nogaro and a very tense Nürburgring!
Featuring ETCC legends Mark Thatcher, Klaus Ludwig, Altfrid Heger, Geoff Allum and many more - including interviews, unique footage and statistics for the competing cars.
Treasure this truly unforgettable season of ETCC action that marked the end of an era!
“Fans of big banger touring cars – think BMW 635, Rover Vitesse and Jaguar XJS - will enjoy these highlights compilations from the European championship. The series attracted big teams – think Schnitzer and TWR – and big-name drivers (too many to list). 1984, ’85, ’86 and ’88 are available”Autosport
