DTM CLK in BELCAR?

Just curious, is there an ex-DTM MB CLK racing in the Belgium (???) Belcar series? I've seen a few pictures of a DTM-ish looking CLK at

Ditto, is there an ST S40 racing in it as well?

I never knew that MB was making the car available to non-DTM or big name teams? That's so unlike MB. Usually, they're quite picky about who they sell the old cars to?

I think both cars don't originate from DTM.

Correct, Audi TT isn´t too a DTM car. TT Racing built it in 1999 and in four years this car hasn´t had good results. http://gto-racing.nexenservices.com/...d_audiTTV8.htm

E46 is correct.

Audi uses DTM TT's in German Langstreckenpokal. There are no Mercedes DTM cars available for customers.

Thanks, I always thought Mercedes didn't sell their DTM cars to privateers.

I understand from dtm.de he organizes the DTM race at Brno:
Quote:
Mercedes-Benz Motorsport Director Norbert Haug: “I must say our lads did a good job. Christijan Albers a great job with start place two. I’m especially pleased for Opel and Heinz-Harald Frentzen. The DTM is a closely fought championship. You have to be fair to see that it’s extremely difficult for newcomers to assert themselves against the experienced drivers. I was surprised to see so many spectators already here today. Up to now things have gone perfectly here in Brno, and I’d like to thank the organisers for that, especially Antonin Charouz.”
So he has close links with Mercedes?
