Default Pictures of RUF CTR3 and GT2 RS from last weekend.

Went to Goodwood FoS last weekend and saw them during super car hill climb runs. RUF sounded very mean. Ferrari 599 GTO was the loudest tho. Also saw the new McLaren MP4-12c. Looks better in person.

Here are some pictures. Enjoy.

CTR: great car, fugly color. Nice to see that the GT3 RS still stands out amongst all the new metal. 458 looks good in that color. Thanks for the pics.

The Ruf was being driven by my friend and the colour was the personal recommendation of Alois Ruf himself who I met with his wife and is they are genuinely lovely people. I liked it when she said "You must come to Germany and drive our cars..."

The GT2RS was driven by Andreas Pereuninger and the GT3RS amongst others by Chris Harris from Evo. I was driving an ex-factory ex-Le Mans 1971 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33/3 and it was an amazing few days!

Beginning to get annoying people keep posting reffering to GT3RSs as simply "the RS" or "RS" - particularly in this thread whose title contains GT2RS and no mention of GT3 - I just wasted another 30 seconnds of my life openingthe you tube vid to find it was a GT3 not a GT2.... and another 60 seconds posting this

Edit: and yes I somehow missed the large white lettering on teh top of the vid saying GT3

Blame Porsche !!! They should have called it 2011 GT2 not GT2 RS, especially if they don't intend to produce a 2011 GT2.

Oops, I forgot, naming it GT2 RS increases MSRP another $50k before options. What a rip off.

More photos of the 911 GT2 RS (not to be confused with the 911 GT3 RS).

TB993tt: I hope this makes up for the pain and suffering inflicted by that hideous 911 GT3 RS video.
