Ruf 3400S

The Ruf 3400S reaches 60 mph in 4.50 s (100 km/h in 5.18 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.20 s, tripping the lights at 107.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.09 s and the eighth mile in 8.54 s, reaching 100 mph in 11.49 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 3400S

The 2001 Ruf 3400S is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,300 kg with 306 bhp, which works out at 235 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 235 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.09 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,654th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 23rd quickest of the 23 Rufs here. Its 107.9 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 7 of 7 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.

Questions

What is the Ruf 3400S 0-60 time?
The Ruf 3400S reaches 60 mph in 4.50 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,654th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ruf 3400S quarter mile time?
13.20 s at 107.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.54 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.09 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ruf 3400S have?
306 bhp and 1,300 kg, which is 235 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 279 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ruf 3400S?
Closest here on pace: Jaguar F-Type V6 S (4.47 s), Chrysler Crossfire SRT6 3.2 V6 335 (4.47 s), BMW M235i (4.47 s). Each one can be raced against the Ruf 3400S 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 Ruf 3400S is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 7 of its 7 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
