Just another alternate shroud that was developed by Joe ???? who passed away a couple of years ago.
DTM - Down The Middle
Jake took over and finished/upgraded the shroud.
I guess mainly for the type 4 upright conversion the Jake is so fond of.
Jake did a lot of testing on different shrouds and doesnt particularly like the Porsche style and is pushing the DTM.

Personally seems a lot of $$$ for what it is.
