Bentley Turbo R

The Bentley Turbo R reaches 60 mph in 7.77 s (100 km/h in 8.16 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.11 s, tripping the lights at 91.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.83 s and the eighth mile in 10.62 s.

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.

About the Turbo R

The 1987 Bentley Turbo R is a rear-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 2,315 kg with 330 bhp, which works out at 143 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 143 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.83 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,074th quickest to 60 mph, and the 69th quickest of the 70 Bentleys here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 91.2 mph, the 4,753rd highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 8 of 10 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.

Questions

What is the Bentley Turbo R 0-60 time?
The Bentley Turbo R reaches 60 mph in 7.77 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,074th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Bentley Turbo R quarter mile time?
16.11 s at 91.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.62 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.83 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Bentley Turbo R have?
330 bhp and 2,315 kg, which is 143 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 235 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Bentley Turbo R?
Closest here on pace: Aston Martin Lagonda Mk II (7.71 s), Infiniti J30 3.0 V6 213 (7.77 s), Lincoln Continental 4.6 V8 260 (7.76 s). Each one can be raced against the Bentley Turbo R in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Bentley Turbo R is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
