Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220

The Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 reaches 60 mph in 6.50 s (100 km/h in 6.80 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.76 s, tripping the lights at 99.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.57 s and the eighth mile in 9.77 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 250 GT 3.0 V12 220

The 1954 Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,100 kg with 217 bhp, which works out at 197 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 197 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.57 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,888th quickest to 60 mph, and the 102nd quickest of the 129 Ferraris here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 99.4 mph, the 2,846th 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 Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 reaches 60 mph in 6.50 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,888th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 quarter mile time?
14.76 s at 99.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.77 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.57 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 have?
217 bhp and 1,100 kg, which is 197 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 4 gears and a quoted top speed of 230 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220?
Closest here on pace: Lotus Europa 1.6 128 (6.55 s), Aston Martin DBS V8 (6.36 s), Mitsubishi Eclipse GT (2010) (6.42 s). Each one can be raced against the Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 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 Ferrari 250 GT 3.0 V12 220 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.
