AxelF should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Things really only went downhill over the last few years when they did away with division 3 and S2000 numbers began to dwindle even further.
Best years were, when it was named DTC (Deutscher Tourenwagen Cup), with a lot of BMW M3 E30, Ford Sierra Cosworth and maybe also Nissan Skyline. The Grids were full, the look of the cars were not very far away from them of the higher DTM, and there were also a lot of good driver names and also young talents. Maybe some kind of WTCC for Germany only.
As far as i remember, there were only one other cars group on the grid. Id rather feel bored to see fast S2000 cars running with Ford Fiestas and other sub-compact cars, that are the opposite of spectacular and fast.

Of course there should be a cheap class for beginners, but its very uninteresting to see such small and slow cars on the track.
