Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

The 2012 AC 378 GT Zagato is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,465 kg with 428 bhp, which works out at 292 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 292 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.87 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 720th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the quickest of the 5 ACs here. Its 117.7 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 5 of 5 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
