Touring Cars is a loose term in Germany. At the 24-hour "touring car" race there last year, or it may have been 2004, a 750-hp, twin-turbo, heavily modded 911 GT2 sat on pole. The factory BMW M3 GTRs also showed up.
I have a video of an onboard lap of the Nordschleife with Klaus Ludwig in his 1993 Mercedes DTM car, I believe, and he says that since the Mercs are running lower downforce than some of the other cars, they're hitting around 350-km/h, instead of just 340, on the Dottinger Hohe Straight.
