AMAZING! Rufs are my favorite, your collection is awesome. RT12 DD (comfortable yet still able to blow the doors of any supercar that challenges you on your way to work), the CTR3 for getting crazy, and the 993 for a nice sunday drive. Anyways, I like the video, there aren't many on RT12s.

When did you get your CTR3? Review please!

hey buddy , got the car recently and absolutely love it, i did a review on another board
quote
just flew home from papenburg in germany at the ATP test facility where i drove the car for the first time 'properly'. the handling circuit is an exact replica of the hockenheim short circuit and i was there testing different tyre/suspension geometry setups with the guys from the factory and technicians from bilstein. the car is on another level, she demands respect of course, less forgiving than a 911 chassis but easier to push to the limit than a carrera gt. the car turns in sharp and there is plenty of grip (pulling 1.4g on some corners) and with a very good LSD easy enough to control on the oversteer but you need to be quicker and smoother with the throttle and steering. more challenging yet more rewarding than my RT12 and the new engine mapping and gear ratio matching has given the power delivery a much more progressive feel which is essential with a mid-engined car of this power on the limit! michelin are releasing their cup tyre in 335/30 R20 soon and this will also be essential as their 315/25 R20 is a little too small for the power in terms of width and rolling radius. (the road wheels have 335/30 R20 michelin PS2's which are perfect for road and high speed driving)
i cant wait to take delivery in a few weeks!
