Hmm... 
Congratulations!
Could you find out more on their RGT/RS.
Unfortunately it will be in the USA when we visit them so I can't test drive and tell everyone if it goes like stink or not

Thank you for the kind words,
Just spoken to Mr RUF, and the car is the last CTR produced by them. With full intergrated roll cage, its extremely light with lots of carbon fibre, hood and doors.
all the best

"We flattened onto the banking and exploded onto the back straight with the tach at around 7000 and the speedometer showed 340. My God, I thought, these are Indy speeds. The yellow Ruf pegged its 350km/h speedometer and howled past the clocks with 336.1 showing on the board: 209mph. Paul looked at me with a slightly manic grin and shouted over the earsplitting roar of the engine. "This is faster than I've ever gone in my life!" Not the kind of thing you hear everyday from a former Grand Prix Driver and Le Mans Winner who test drives every conceivable kind of car for a living."
