I'll correct your capitalisation, because I have nothing to do with my time. The company spells their name '9ff' with lower-case letters. As for Ruf, it is the last name of the company's founder, Alois Ruf - which means there should be no capital F there.

Hopefully, you'll forgive my tutoring  :D because, apart from that, you're completely right. It is a 9ff GT9.

You're right about 9ff, @re, but I've seen RuF spelt in that manner numerous times, pretty sure it's the way it's spelt on the company's logo as well.

No big deal, anyway. But it is the name of the founder. They do tend to spell it with three capital letters, though: RUF.

Oh yeah!

Oops.

I'm familiar with Alois Ruf, there's a fantatic hostory of his family's company narrated by him on YouTube.
