Then, give RUF in Germany a call and invite them to come to LVMS to take on my Protomotive 996tt on a two way challenge (Craig, if this happens, I think you should get in on this since Sharkeys CF Porsche is for show now
) against the RT12. If they come out victorious, the 300K will insure me my own RT12, if not well then.........Sharkey can see them some CF ??IE: more boost than normal, internal engine enhancements, etc.

The RT12 has been timed at a very respectable 11.0 1/4 mile. However, that is far short of some of the modified 996TTs on this forum, including yours, Sharkey's and EVOMS's (10.3).

However, that isn't the one I would most want to see come out and play. I'd love to see Manthey send ome of their cars. If you placed the same call to them I believe you would get an affirmative.

haha Alexander I think you are definetly my new idol. haha I couldn't even imagine calling RUF up and asking them about the 800hp car and then next day challenging them to a race where you will buy their car if victorious. I can't believe they wouldn't do it, that in a way, makes me loose some respect for them.
I also can't believe protomotive refunded your money when your are blew, that is something to speak of.

I am in talks with Speed Channel to set up a 'World's Ultimate 996tt' shoot-out invite in which, I will present a offer to Ruf and a couple of other Euro tuners that they cant refuse
. It will be a special one hour televised show. The winner would not only receive the bragging rights but a new 997tt as well. I will keep you guys updated as the plan expands..
