I didn't get a clear look at the speedo, but I've seen enough motorsport to know that it was FAST.
Time to find a 968 Turbo S..........

1 set of tires - 400.00
1 trip to the track - 100.00
Drifting your 911 round those twisties... priceless

Predator, I don't think the driver was trying to be smooth.
He was trying to be cool. He suceeded.

Yep.....the driver of that car is none other than Stefan Roser, Ruf's top test driver.....he goes by the nickname "Sideways Stefan". There is another video that shows inside the car and he is quite smooth. You don't get to be Ruf's top test driver by being sloppy.....and Ruf's customers let him drive their cars whenever basically when they are at a track from what I've seen/read.
