Caterham Classic 1.4 105

The Caterham Classic 1.4 105 reaches 60 mph in 5.88 s (100 km/h in 6.20 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.61 s, tripping the lights at 90.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.17 s and the eighth mile in 9.30 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 Classic 1.4 105

The 2000 Caterham Classic 1.4 105 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 525 kg with 105 bhp, which works out at 199 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 199 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.17 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,130th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 14th quickest of the 14 Caterhams here. It leaves better than it pulls: 90.1 mph at the lights is only the 5,119th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Caterham Classic 1.4 105 0-60 time?
The Caterham Classic 1.4 105 reaches 60 mph in 5.88 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,130th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Caterham Classic 1.4 105 quarter mile time?
14.61 s at 90.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.30 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.17 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Caterham Classic 1.4 105 have?
105 bhp and 525 kg, which is 199 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 177 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Caterham Classic 1.4 105?
Closest here on pace: Lamborghini 350 GT 3.5 V12 260 (5.92 s), Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 250 (6.03 s), Alpine A110 Berlinette 1.3 110 (5.87 s). Each one can be raced against the Caterham Classic 1.4 105 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 Caterham Classic 1.4 105 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.
