Lamborghini Countach LP400

The Lamborghini Countach LP400 reaches 60 mph in 5.00 s (100 km/h in 5.22 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.21 s, tripping the lights at 111.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.34 s and the eighth mile in 8.71 s, reaching 100 mph in 10.92 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 Countach LP400

The 1974 Lamborghini Countach LP400 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,065 kg with 370 bhp, which works out at 348 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 348 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.34 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,165th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 67th quickest of the 83 Lamborghinis here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 111.4 mph, the 1,261st 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.

Questions

What is the Lamborghini Countach LP400 0-60 time?
The Lamborghini Countach LP400 reaches 60 mph in 5.00 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,165th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Lamborghini Countach LP400 quarter mile time?
13.21 s at 111.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.71 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.34 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Lamborghini Countach LP400 have?
370 bhp and 1,065 kg, which is 348 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 299 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Lamborghini Countach LP400?
Closest here on pace: Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV (5.16 s), Lotec 928 GT Kompressor (5.17 s), Lotus Esprit S4s (4.90 s). Each one can be raced against the Lamborghini Countach LP400 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 Lamborghini Countach LP400 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.
