I think you guys got them confused. Red one is 2003 RUF R Turbo.
Yellow one is 1990 CTR "Yellowbird" according to the caption in the begining.

True. If this is the same video of them on the flight-line this should be Adam T's i believe of his family's RUF's. The Red is a RTurbo and the Yellow is no other than a Yellowbird (RUF CTR) There are threads of this i believe on the 996 Turbo board and apparently Adam states the RTurbo had a turbo hose leak and was only running at .6 boost??? Adam if you stop by on this board correct me as needed.

You are spot on, the car was not performing well. However it has been dropped off by mr ruf last week and we have been driving it and the performance now is sensational, i will make more videos with it and the CTR soon
