Default Faszination Yellowbird video

Does anyone have a copy of the RUF yellowbird Faszination video?,I read about it recently and can just about remember the video from the late 80's that features the RUF test driver Stefan Roser(serious loony) driving the Yellowbird RUF-CTR around Nurburgring unbelievebly flat out sidways on every corner,Like the article says the guy is"obviously unable to imagine the consequences of a 180 mph accident"it is the most amazing piece of driving ive ever seen and would like to duplicate a copy of the video.

I've got one, but it's getting seriously worn out now. Anyone know if you can get a DVD?

O/T - Ian - great avatar! Which circuit? If you'd like it made sharper, just email me the original image and I'll spruce it up a bit. No offence meant - it just looks a little ragged.

I've been looking for a DVD version for a while, with no luck. It seems there's only the video version about, and RUF are still only selling the tape one. If anyone else knows different please, please, let me know!

I recommend a DSL or LAN connection, each is about 13MB in size

Hi Everyone,

If someone can lend me a copy I can re-produce on DVD for a small fee (couple of quid a go).

Cheers,
Pete.

Greg L (thank you) let me have a DVD with Uwe whatshisname going around the Ring in some 700+hp 911 Turbo a few months back. I finally got DVD on my PC a week ago, and that DVD is just AAAAAAAAAAAAAWWESOME. He is going so fast that it looks like it is something out of a Playstation game....especially amusing is the amount of sudden snap oversteer there in is some of the slower corners as the Turbos kick in....Greg are you going to host that anywhere....? It is really cool. And did I mention the sound? The wastegates and whatnot are whistling and hissing non-stop.....just heaven....
