Only if you can't manage throttle control weight transfer. If you have a handle on that, the Rufs are an absolute hoot to drive, powerful and responsive.Leonidae
I ran the series in a semi-built Ruf 3400S (Boxster chassis) with race intake, chip, NA2 tuning, race brakes, and (I think) race suspension. It's a honey of a car and at the spec (74 A-spec points) it was not a hard series. I could probably have gotten away with NA1, maybe. I had 3.high" and 4.low" victories at Hong Kong and DF, and a whopping 16.mid" at Sears Point (Infineon).

RUFs they beat the sh"t out of cars. Imprezas, they handle and beat the sh"t out cars.
i think the Impreza wins

I can manage the weight transfer etc, but RUF's, especially the genuine RR's, aren't my cup of tea. they either understeer or spin. RUF 3400S is better, because it's MR. but, if I have to say which RUF is most difficult for me to drive, it's the 4wd one. I prefer Subarus because they're not such handful ( excluding 360 )

Shurely a "censor thingy" is "going round" the swear filter? This is a family programme...

RUFs are some of the best cars in the game, if you're man enough to drive them :-)))
Seriously though, the 3400s doesn't even need any special driving techniques, and it will easily win that series. Then you'll get the best boxer in the game, the Yellowbird, as your trophy car.
Personally, I prefer the RR configured RUFs, but many people have a hard time with those, at least a first.

Ruf's are the best but if you can't control the weight to power ratio your toast. If you are more of an newbie go for Impreza WRX STI Spec C i have one and totally kicked butt. The car may under steer from time to time but once you are a expert driver (like me) u can control the under stter. or another way is to get the brake controller and move the brakes to the front to coreect under steer
Edit: to people that think Ruf's are MR that's no tru they are RR that's the reason why they kickass on acceleration. But because of the weight on the back axel the back tires can wear out amazingly quick if you just slam the throttle.

ya just about everyone's saying the spec C but i would actually say the 22B as long as u adjust the limited slip because it spins on the corners slightly, just tighten it a little bit

go into driving aids in the settings and fix it
it's quite simple actually

Tell me if I'm completely wrong here, but doesn't increasing the front brake force increase understeer instead of reducing it?icephenoix55
What comes to the best boxer car, the RUFs are very fast but I think they can't be used to full advantage on tight tracks as the braking distances are very long thanks to the huge acceleration and the special cornering technique needed. The Imprezas understeer somewhat on throttle but are great in turn-in... it depends on what you like. If you've mastered the RR techniques, then go for a BTR or an RGT but if not, an Impreza will be a good choice that won't let you down.
