OTB 67: From the stash
G'day Benchers! Unfortunately I've been called away to assist with fires in New South Wales so we are not able to bring you our usual show.

We will be back with our regular programming in a fortnight so in the meantime enjoy and stay safe.
What it's Like to Drive the debis Mercedes 190E DTM
There's a good chance that, at some point, we've all wondered what it would be like to drive the full size version of our favorite Tamiya car.
Here's a short video of the guys over at The Drive piloting the debis Mercedes 190 E DTM car around the Hockenheim circuit! It is a museum piece so I'm sure he didn't get to completely air it out, but I bet the experience was like none other!
Enjoy!
