That is absolutely not a RUF CTR, the CTR would've blown the 355 into the weeds, it is significantly faster...that engine note is a Honda Vtec 2Liter, I'm 100% sure of it. In fact, I'm sure that it's a Civic Type R, as it's front drive (understeers, and the spin was caused by lift-off oversteer or the hand brake or some combination of the two)

Thanks for the link, but I would have thought that a RUF would have been faster as well actually..

That sure makes sense..... the Integra Type-R is often referred to as ITR and the Civic Type-R as CTR. Someone might have mixed things up, and thought that CTR stood for the RUF-model. :idea:

An F355 isn't going to pull away on a straightaway from any RUF turbo (never mind the CTR) unlike what happened in this video. I would tend to agree with Vansquish, in that it's most likely a type R Honda engined car.

Good call guys...that's an unturboed I-4 noise coming from the chase car, definetely NOT a big turboed flat six.

Yes, it's worth it. I like the camera angle down low on the car- almost feels like you're in a driving game. You can hear the driver's in the cockpit, the mic is obviously inside
