Ruf CTR2

[Shmorgusborg]

Can the CTR2 win "Like The Wind" in either A or B-Spec modes? I've heard some people say yes and some say no.

 

[Silver-Sylph]

Ummmm no...
I had a hard time in the Audi R10.

 

[Shmorgusborg]

What car can? Do you know? I don't have the R10 in my garage. I've got one incredibly tuned ACR, Furai, LP640, GT and ZR1... Can any of those win it? Or am I gonna have to spend millions on a vehicle that can?

Furai can easily win in A spec mate....

really?

really?

Definetly. The race on indy can be little tough to win on the furai though.

 

[Shmorgusborg]

Definetly.

Lets find out. Cause those cars have about 350-400 hp on me.

Beat it with the ZR1 race conversion last night by .001 of a second. Flew past 5 cars on the last 2 turns, and was blocking THREE of them down the straight. Swore I had lost : )

Furai was a piece of cake. Apparently a RM ZR-1 wins quite easily as well.

I seriously doubt that the RGT would hold the pace of the other race cars. I used the Furai for the first race and the Zonda R for the second race - both cars that you win in b-spec.

True on both counts. The ZR1 wins it (and the Extreme American races) handily, but if you are looking to do it without spending the $690,000 it will cost for a fully tuned ZR1, you can win a Furai in the B-spec Roadster (miata) race.

For the Furai, tune what little you can on the engine (I think maybe an engine tune stage 3 and turbo? not sure, but it's not much), crank the aerodynamics to the highest setting on both the front and rear, throw on racing soft tires, and set the transmission to, I *THINK* 205mph top speed for Indy. Mine was set at 199, and I think that's what I used for Daytona. Anyway, for Indy, stay to the inside, and don't ever let off the gas. You can take the turns at full-bore, just avoid the computer cause they slow down a lot for the turns. They may catch you on the long straights, just stay to the inside. The jump you get coming out of the last corner should be enough to get to the finish in 1st. Position yourself on the track so they aren't picking up your draft. Using a view with a mirror helps

Ya right now I'm using the Furai to annihilate the opponents in the "Dream Car Championship". It's not even a competition other then on Sarthe track when the XJ LM Race car would chase me down on the long straights.

I had to constantly block him and cut corners off . I could out accelerate him from 1 - 4th gears but when it got to it's 5th and 6th gears he would blow my doors off. I only drive with the bumper cam so I can see who's coming up behind me so I can block them.

I don't think I'll need anything other than the car I just won with my 1000 Ticket.

908 HDi FAP - Team Oreca Matmut '10, 930kg w/900hp

 

[igota33]

Wow, for my 1000 ticket i won a standard honda accord, and it sucks hard.

Daytona is pretty easy. I needed a friendly bump down the final stretch at Indy to win.

You would have to be uncommonly awesome to win Like the Wind with a CTR2 in A-Spec. In B-Spec, you would stand a better chance of going on a blind date and having it be Monica Bellucci.
