Questions

Is the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) or the Ford Falcon XR8 Sprint Premcar Holy Grail FG X faster?
The Ford Falcon XR8 Sprint Premcar Holy Grail FG X. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 12.33 s to the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650)'s 12.42 s, a margin of 0.08 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.44 s against 4.20 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) 0-60 time?
The Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) reaches 60 mph in 4.20 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.42 s at 115.1 mph.
What is the Ford Falcon XR8 Sprint Premcar Holy Grail FG X 0-60 time?
The Ford Falcon XR8 Sprint Premcar Holy Grail FG X reaches 60 mph in 4.44 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.33 s at 121.7 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) trips the lights at 115.1 mph and the Ford Falcon XR8 Sprint Premcar Holy Grail FG X at 121.7 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 3 of 3 for the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (S650) and 9 of 10 for the Ford Falcon XR8 Sprint Premcar Holy Grail FG X. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
