Maybe his steering bushings are bad but man he sure makes a lot of adjustments to the wheel! (I mean large adjustments when the car still looks like it is going straightish). Loose steering.

Wow, just wow.

Older 911 + crazy power = you could spin the wheel 90 degrees without affecting forward travel

The car in that video is actually the original CTR Yellow Bird, as well
the CTR2 was based on the 993, while the CTR (arguably the most famous RUF) was a 930-based car.

I stand corrected.. I didn't watch the whole video, caught the glimpse of the car from the outside and thought it was a 993

Headlight tunnels peg it as a 930, as do the wipers.

The specs on the original CTR are insane. I saw one not long ago in Florida with a claimed 0-60 of 2.8 and top speed of 225.

Nuts!

Definately not a 993 look at that old school shifter and wheel! No helmet! I guess at those speeds he'd be dead anyways. Thats his first time at that track too! JK

Good eyes. Must be 1989 or older to have that steering wheel.
