Sounds great! Thanks for the link mate! Didnīt know that Kleemann has already released a stronger 65 engine.

How much torque has the RUF got? Just shows how much better engineered the porker is - considering how much faster it is with less grunt.
Thats at Bruntingthorpe UK btw ;)

Look at that baby pull!
The guy who owns the RUF also owns an original 'Yellowbird' which is even faster.

I dont know about a 'well balanced' car being faster in a straight line, certainly a car with closer ratios that weighs less is just as fast as a big lazy heavy hugely powered barge. :wink:

Closer ratios = less top speed?
Depends if it revs higher....
Those cars were taking part in the Pistonheads VMax event I think...

He reached 202mph at the end of the straight on a different run (verified)..... the macca F1 has only been faster through the trap at bruntingthorpe.
From his data logger:

Notice hes still gaining 1.4mph per second at 200mph!

Closer ratios = less top speed :?
... and that RUF was damn fast!!
Closer ratio's means better acceleration, as long as it doesnt run out of revs then doesnt have a detrimental effect on top speed, which the RUF didnt appear to do.
That merc had very tall gears to im guessing that on the rev limiter in top gear (does it have 6 speed? maybee even 5!) it would be doing a fair bit more than 200 mph.

Does that first graph indicate that he did 50-200mph in 16 secs? If so thats fucking ridiculous. I also love the video of the RUF in overtake mode :D
It's nice to see an RS6 high up there aswell :)

I think so.... looks like he was in 3rd at 50mph, which is either short gearing, or shit loads of torque hes got!
Top speed of that Ruf is 215mph officially. Top speed with Ruf's long gearing is about 225mph

I was taking part in this event , and belive me that those Ruf cars ( there were 2 of them ) were really quick. Especially Ruf based at GT2 (RGT) , he managed to break 202 mph (230 km/h ?) !!!

I think you meant to say GT2R and 320km/h :)
His GT2R is the black one is it not? and the Turbo R is red?

correction: his dad owns them... He's the one Tiff had a go with at the v-max event on fifth gear

I'm sorry, but that is a stupid thing for you to say. The CL wasn't originally meant to be a sports car, unlike the Porker. :roll:
That being said, they're both insanely fast.
