yellowbird performs again

The latest issue of Road and Track has a cool article with a group of cars running a full mile acceleration and top speed test. There was an 86 I think vintage Ruf CTR with 100,000kms on the clock, embarrasing many new sports cars. It even went faster than a late model Ruf turbo. Very entertaining read, highly recommended.

It's not that article. It's the standing mile article. There are two RUF's in it.
