About the Express 6.0 V8 304

The 2008 Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 2,462 kg with 300 bhp, which works out at 122 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 122 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.98 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,854th quickest to 60 mph, and the 106th quickest of the 199 Chevrolets here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 85.8 mph, the 6,935th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 0-60 time?
The Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 reaches 60 mph in 8.68 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,854th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 quarter mile time?
16.89 s at 85.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.13 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.98 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 have?
300 bhp and 2,462 kg, which is 122 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 185 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304?
Closest here on pace: Cadillac Escalade 5.3 299 (8.66 s), Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ 5.2 V8 211 (8.67 s), Jeep Wrangler JK 3.8 V6 198 (8.76 s). Each one can be raced against the Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 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 Chevrolet Express 6.0 V8 304 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.
