“I think this is one of most stunning videos and showcases BRILLIANT and cold as ice (no helmet, 80s style short sleeve shirt) driving! and the car is ace, too!” – Andreas (from Austria)
Definitely an old favourite of ours that set the standard for automotive videos. Stefan Roser, white socks and slippers, making the RUF CTR dance. Awesome.

It’s been a while since I’ve watched that video.
My God, is it stunning. He’s absolutely on top of that car, in a way I’ve only previously seen from the likes of Röhrl. Incredible piece of driving, and that car looks like an absolutely exhausting experience to drive at those kinds of speeds!
Shame the DVD is a bit pricey.

@Marty – I remember paying £14.99 for it back in the ’90s, but I heard that Ruf repackaged their videos combining it with an interview with Alois Ruf (hence the price rise). Perhaps a search on eBay might uncover one of the original videos.
