2010 Danish Touringcar Championship season

The 2010 Danish Touringcar Championship season was the 11th and last Danish Touringcar Championship (DTC) season. Four of the race weekends will be held together with the Swedish Touring Car Championship and the results from these races will also count towards the Scandinavian Touring Car Cup. From 2011, the new Scandinavian Touring Car Championship will replace both the Swedish and the Danish Touring Car Championships.[1]

In 2012 the series was succeeded by the Danish Thundersport Championship, using the Camaro Cup cars as a basis.[2]
