Bristol 406 2.2 107

The Bristol 406 2.2 107 reaches 60 mph in 12.76 s (100 km/h in 13.55 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 19.32 s, tripping the lights at 73.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.33 s and the eighth mile in 12.61 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.

About the 406 2.2 107

The 1958 Bristol 406 2.2 107 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,365 kg with 105 bhp, which works out at 77 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 77 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.33 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 13,436th quickest to 60 mph, and the 16th quickest of the 21 Bristols here. Its 73.4 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Bristol 406 2.2 107 0-60 time?
The Bristol 406 2.2 107 reaches 60 mph in 12.76 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 13,436th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Bristol 406 2.2 107 quarter mile time?
19.32 s at 73.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 12.61 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.33 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Bristol 406 2.2 107 have?
105 bhp and 1,365 kg, which is 77 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 172 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Bristol 406 2.2 107?
Closest here on pace: Chevrolet Cruze 1.4 100 (12.80 s), MG ZT 1.8i 16V 120 (12.75 s), Saab 90 2.0 100 (12.74 s). Each one can be raced against the Bristol 406 2.2 107 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 Bristol 406 2.2 107 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
