Slot.it CA35b Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti n.27 DTM 1994 Norisring : 1/32 Slot Car

The Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI is a racing car built to race in the DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschadt) series in 1993. At that time the German Touring Car Championship was the peak of technology for touring car racing, being reserved for cars of Class 1 (first division or D1). The rules mandated cars with an engine displacement of 2.5 litres and 6 cylinders at most, derived from approved models and produced no less than 25,000 units. The rules allowed deep changes to the car, providing that the external lines were maintained.

When Alfa Romeo introduced its 420 bhp, four-wheel drive 155, the more conventional rear-wheel drive Mercedes 190 couldn’t match Alfa’s performance. In 1993, the Italian car dominated the category, winning 12 races out of 20 with its two factory drivers, thus winning both divers and constructor titles. To date, the Alfa Romeo 155 is the only non-German car to have won a DTM championship.
