Thumbs up On popular demand. The RUF RT12 accelerating in the night

Thanks for all pms and emails after the RT12 test drive. I'm working on part II...

On popular demand, and zoomed in.

It's in the middle of the night, little moon light only so ISO is at max setting 1000+ hence the pixles.

0-60 in 3.15 secs... P Zero Rosso. Around +15C. Measured with GPS 100Hz.

Nope.

Compare? Well the CGT has 4 cylinders more, less power-torque and will get overtaken any second. Not to mention the price.
And you can seat 4 in the RT12 if you don't go for the cage.

But, I think you better compare the CGT with the RUF R50 whenever it's released.

I think it was disable in this car at this moment = me being careful in the turns
But as far as I'm aware you should be able to have it.

Don't know the size vs. stock.

The tire sizes for the RT-12 are:

Front: 255/35 ZR 19

Rear: 345/25 ZR 20

Looks like a fantastic car, we are very excited to get our first one in the U.S.!

I read in Autozeitung that the car they drove only had 305 tyres in the rear. What was the case with this car Erik? Also, how was the traction?
