Thanks a lot Gustav! Keep 'em coming!

That was a few (very long) bus lenghts in difference, and the Supra sounded healthy this time.

People who wasn't there should know that the white sign in the middle of the track is the finish line, nothing else.


The specification of this car is:

RUF R Turbo 650 (3.8 liter)
IRC = Integrated Roll Cage. (Perfect for safety plus it makes the car more stiff.)
Ruf R Turbo air intakes
4WD drivetrain
Different gear ratios
RUF instrumentation
RUF sport steering wheel
etc.



Note the air intakes on this picture.

Gustavo!!

Excellent clip mate!! The Supra just can't hang with the big dawg....RUF...RUF!!!

Guess the gearing on the Ruf is taller than the Supra that's why it wasn't able to hang correct?
