Well, the DTM takes place in Germany. The weather in Germany is similar to what you have in the Northeast of the US, so an "early" start there is not possible.

If a big "splash" is the advantage to a late start, why not wait even longer?

The late start is a big disadvantage as OWRS gets "lost" in the goings-on of all the other Series' and by that time is competing with the opening of baseball season and a number of outdoor activites as Spring weather allows.

The other major Series that run here are able to take advantage of the climate opportunities that living in a country this large offers, so why can't OWRS? More importantly why won't OWRS take advantage of the opportunities?
