The 1993 Opel Corsa 3dr 1.6 16V 106 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 940 kg with 105 bhp, which works out at 111 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.78 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,796th quickest to 60 mph, and the 186th quickest of the 721 Opels here. Its 84.8 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.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
