About the Aero 8 4.8 V8 368

The 2008 Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,145 kg with 362 bhp, which works out at 316 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 316 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.87 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 729th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 2nd quickest of the 13 Morgans here. Its 114.5 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 0-60 time?
The Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 reaches 60 mph in 3.61 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 729th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 quarter mile time?
12.16 s at 114.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.88 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 have?
362 bhp and 1,145 kg, which is 316 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 274 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368?
Closest here on pace: Donkervoort D8 1.8 Turbo 210 (3.56 s), Aston Martin Vanquish 5.9 V12 573 (3.67 s), AC 378 GT Zagato (3.60 s). Each one can be raced against the Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 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 Morgan Aero 8 4.8 V8 368 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.
