Check out the Work Area.  Just set the Work Area start and end areas to the
part you'd like to save out.  Press "b" on the keyboard to set the work
area start to the current frame, then "n" to set the out-point.  You can do
this before or after you've created the RAM preview.  You can also
interactively drag the in and out points of the work area in the
Composition panel.

Note that this also works when you're adding things to the regular render
queue.  It will default to rendering whatever you've set your work area to.
