RUF CTR3 at least looks like it's no Porsche (apart from front and rear light
clusters). The Body is 100% RUF design but the engine is twin KKK turbocharged
Porsche 3.8.
Ruf is a independent car producer by US and German law.. they recive chassies
from Porsche without any numbers and use own manufatcor numbers.. the RT12 use
60% parts from Porsche the rest is completley Ruf build..but from that 60% over
90% get a rework... amazing fact.. Ruf offered a Turbo version of the 997 befor
Porsche did..
sportauto test the RUF RT12 in the 2/2008 edition... at sportauto online they
claimed the car finished in the top5 of all time sportauto supertest... reaching
with 308km/h the second highest topspeed during a supertest at the Nürburgring
northloop lap.
the RUF RT12 is a porsche 911 GT2 turbo because it looks the same if anyone
wants to see it go to www.google.com trust me its the same and the spoiler the
bumper but different colour
Ryo Ruf recive chassies without manufactor code from Porsche, RUF has a own
manufactor code and are independent car producer by US and German law since the
1980´s. Over 60% of the parts used in a RUF "911" are not from Porsche
I bet this could do a 1:18.2 at the Top Gear Track, speaking of that, why doesnt
Top Gear test Ruf's on the Show, the old 90's TG tested them, but not this one,
anyone know why?
i wouldnt expect it to be that quick at the very least half a second slower
because of the sections where that space in between two corners isnt nearly long
enough. coming out of the first corner even a gt-r will reach a higher peak
speed before chicago. its apex speed would also be lower through the follow
through it would need to be past the tire wall to get significantly faster.
anyways who would trust jeremy clarkson with an overpowered porsche :) imagine
him in a yellowbird lol. spin out, get frustrated, burn it, tnt whatever ends
it. he has actually done that to a same generation carrera.
