Talking The RUF Rt12 in nice company (Michelin's 200Mph Club)

Very nice collection of supercars!

After the Veyron, can I please have the Rt12 please?

That would be a nice garage - I love the Koenigsegg. I know it's performance is amazing but I just do not get the Veyron. I just don't think it's a great looking car

I don't think the photographer knew what he missed, maybe he thought "just another Porsche?"

With the T1 excluded (never officially tested as far as I know) the Rt12 would be the second fastest car to 300 km/h among these. As far as I know the Koenigsegg has never been tested to 300 km/h either.

Ruf Rt12 (AWD) 0 - 300 km/h 24,86 secs.

Wow..imagine being the one to drive the cars onto this ramp...one slip and you'd fall over either side!!!! I'm referring to the curved parts of course.

Erik,

Thanks for the nice pictures, just as an FYI, there was the AWD 996GTR 750 from Gemballa that was tested in Sport Car in 2002, with full weight and stock gearbox and a huge (awful) wing and did 0-300kph in 21.7s, with stock wing it would have been quite faster I believe.

Jean

Edit, sorry just saw that you were referring to the cars in the pictures only concerning the 0-300kph.
