About the 911 Turbo S 993

The 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged car of 1,500 kg with 444 bhp, which works out at 296 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.84 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 654th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 87th quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 121.4 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 5 of 5 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 0-60 time?
The Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 reaches 60 mph in 3.51 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 654th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 quarter mile time?
11.80 s at 121.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.67 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.84 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 have?
444 bhp and 1,500 kg, which is 296 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 302 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Porsche 911 Turbo S 993?
Closest here on pace: Ruf 997 R Kompressor (3.64 s), Porsche 911 Turbo 997 (3.44 s), Aston Martin Vantage Roadster Mk II (3.51 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 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 Porsche 911 Turbo S 993 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 5 of its 5 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
