New RUF video! - now on dvd...
 

Hello everyone,

I take it most of you - hopefully - are now familar with 'Faszination On The Nurburgring'...

Given the fact that I've got a copy of this fantastic video on VHS shipped over from RUF themselves in West Germany, a member here (brettdavis) was interested to obtain a copy also.

After emailing RUF, they informed Brett that they no longer produce the video :cry: , however :wink: , they are about to release a new DVD with not only 'Faszination On The Nurburgring' from 1990 with the RUF CTR, but also, a brand new RUF TURBO R at the same track, with the same crazy factory test driver (Stefan Roser)!!! + more!!!!!!!! :shock: :D

After hearing this great news from Brett, I emailed RUF to immediately order a copy :D

p.s

I'll get back to you on this one when it arrives and let you know how it compares to the original video.

Very nice.Ruf turbo R is one of my dreamcars.

Thanks for the info, let us now when it's released and the link to order a copy :wink:

That would be a great DVD but that is very expensive!

aahhhh......whats the 'little something'?
That is very expensive for a DVD, about $AU 160, is that roughly what you paid?

someone rip it

Send him half the money for a copy for you + some more for the time it would take to rip it - thats if he has the hardware, software and knowledge. Then, how about YOU share it with us all :D

Not that link ... a direct link to the video !!! DVDRip :wink:

The 'little something' arrived in the mail today...

A 'Ruf Yellowbird watch'! - cool :)

$148 :roll: :) - Ruf hasn't disappointed me in the past, so I wouldn't expect them to start now...however, the original 'Faszination On The Nurburgring' is a VERY hard act to follow so it'll be interesting to see what they've come up with...

Could we have a review please?! :)

Any news on the DVD?

RUF is one of the top three tuners in the world....it comes after Brabus.... :wink:
