About the SLR Stirling Moss Speedster

The 2009 Mclaren Mercedes SLR Stirling Moss Speedster is a rear-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,568 kg with 641 bhp, which works out at 409 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 409 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.75 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 295th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the quickest of the 4 Mclaren Mercedess here. Its 130.6 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 10 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

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 Mclaren Mercedes SLR Stirling Moss Speedster is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
