Amazing car indeed RC, congrats for the test :D
I had the chance to drive one on the open road tough... but it was quite an experience!
if I remember right, this little baby was quicker than the mighty F40 on the ring... that said it all.
can't wait for the pics! :wink:

Can't wait for the video cause it seems it was took quick for your camera's shutter ;)
Really seems like you've become friends with all the right people. Are you planning on doing some Winding Road type online media/magazine?

Glad to hear about the Miura!
Its interesting seeing the C5 Vette next to the Miura, because up until this point I never realized how many similarities both of the cars share in terms of design.
That could be the reason why I like the C5 vettes so much :P

I thought that the CTR was based on the pre-964 model so without 4WD version :?: I know that it has front and rear bumpers of the 964 type but I thought it was aftermarket adds-on.
So Ruf made a Yellowbird version on 964 basis, how many hp ??

Yes - that is the other one ;)
Trust me fellas - I have never bullshitted you guys and never will :)
From my post in the other thread...
how manty CTR's are there? 25? how many 964 CTR's are there?
thats damn cool!
Total CTR production? Not sure - awaiting an answer from RUF GMBH - total 4WD 964 based conversions? 2.. :)
Not that I would know ;) :P - but apparently if you went head to head Bently Conti GT vs 485bhp C5 Z06 on the freeway tehy run pretty much neck and neck...
That there Bentley is a fast mofo.. ;)

I know that you won't RC, I didn't put your say in doubt.

No problem... I just want you guys to be able to enjoy what I post with a relaxed "trust" - as I am trying to bring more and more exciting things to JW every week ;)
Some things later this year are going to blow you guys away ;) :P
Lets just say, this CTR Yellowbird will seem like a boring mass produced Yugo compared to some things that are coming :) :P
Nice review of the CTR - simple... clear... enough :wink:
I tried to put into words what it felt like... ;)

... a drive in the Pininfarina Ferrari 612 P4/5 may be?? :P :D Now that would be awesome!!
I am not sure how to pull that one off... but I will give it a try ;)
Or are you refering to the beasty RS200 Evo?? :wink: :twisted:
Nope - you alreay know about that one...
All I can say at this time is - mid-90's German 1 of 2 made - pretty succesful racing history ;)
Oh - and you wouldn't believe me even if I told you.. it is Pics of STFU material ;)

^ Dauer 962 Evo? :wink: :P
I think they made less Schuppan 962's than Dauers - maybe it's one of those :P

Well,
Only five of these cars were ever built. At just over US$1.5 million in 1994, the Schuppan 962CR is the second most expensive vehicle ever sold new.
That eliminates that one ;) - but will say it is a road car version... :P

I was to busy taking note of the required driving nuances and techniques so when I start daily driving the CTR I won't stall it too many times - or lose to other 218mph street cars I might come across.. ;)

im guessing a '96 Porsche GT1 streetversion... dunno how many of those have been made but it isn't alot, thats for sure... altho i dont know about the successful racing history of the streetcar, but maybe u meant the race version...

Hey bucko, would you lay off already. I joke around with RC alot b/c we're both very sarcastic, if you can't understand that by now then simply shut up.
with nearly 8000 posts, i guess i dont shut up too easily :)
sure, there are those with much much more.
BTW, jokes in internetn forums are usually accompanied with something like this"
:D :) :( :o :shock: :? 8) :lol: :x :P :oops: :cry: :twisted: :roll: :wink: :!: :?: :idea: :arrow: :| :mrgreen: :fadein: :fist: 0X etc.

I'm almost certain there were 30 '96 GT1 "Strassenversion", but there was only 1-2 of the '98 model that I know of. It cant be that 8)

All I am willing to say is... there were 20 odd cars made based on the 996, and 2 cars made based on the 993...
One was red... the other was white...
...and as i posted already, you wouldn't believe me if I told you :P ;)
One was red... the other was white...
And the last one was yellow! :wink: :P

Well this car was in Pennsylania this past weekend.. and could perhaps be a reworked race car... or the red car painted yellow.. - I know it's not the white car repainted yellow.. ;)
