We will be seeing your car this Saturday. Will file you a progress report. How's that for the Rennlist spirit.

Steve,

How about replacing this:
Ima2nr: 1996 Ruf Turbo R conversion (529.27 HP): Atlanta, USA

With this:
Niche (Javier): 1996 RUF Turbo R conversion: Oceanside, CA, USA

Actually the seller told me it had a few more horses... I'm not sure how to read a Dyno well, so I'm not sure where it's at.

Javier,

It is bitter sweet to replace Kevin with your name. You are both great guys, and Kevin will miss THE HELL out of that car. I'm sure, just like Ahnold, "he'll be back".

Your car made 529HP when tested on the Ruf Dyno when new. It now has quite a few more ponies with the stuff that was recently done. It is definetly a Ruf Turbo R PLUS! I can't say congratulations enough, and we get to see that beauty in person on Saturday!!!!!!

Steve! you've got my blessing to remove my name and Put Javior on his rightful throne! :-)

FWIW- the last dyno was 579hp and 604 ft lb of torque

Please enjoy/ love the car as I did... it is truly one of a kind. (a rare piece of RUF history)

Steve. give me a call! later
Javior (bling! bling! bling! (inside joke)) :-)

Ima2nr, you sold your beautiful RUF!?

At least it stayed in the RL family. Enjoy it Javi.

Kevin,

Thanks for the HP info... I had forgotten what you said on our last conversation. I accept the passing of the torch and you will see the car will be taken care of and loved... you have no idea my friend.

I want to also take a moment to tell you what a pleasure it was working with you on the transaction. We had a lot of obstacles but we managed to get it done. Funny thing is we've never met in person yet I feel like I can trust you more than others I've known in business for years.

Like I mentioned before... this is my dream car. Everything seemed to click perfectly, culminating with me driving it back from RUF in a caravan of RUFs... I believe it was meant to be. You will always have first dibs on it if I ever need to sell it...

Again thank you and I look forward to meeting you in person one day soon and shaking your hand... and maybe making a rap music video! ;-) (inside joke)

My apologies to Brian (BB993tt)... in my cutting and pasting I dropped him off the list. I promise you, there was no editorial reason... just a senior brain fart.

You are the man. Is that the one that slipped away once?
