The 1964 Plymouth Barracuda Sport Coupe 4.5 V8 182 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,335 kg with 180 bhp, which works out at 135 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 135 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.01 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 9,482nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 3rd quickest of the 8 Plymouths here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 85.5 mph, the 7,047th 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.

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.
