Questions

Is the Honda Civic Type R (FK8) or the Ferrari 488 GTB faster?
The Ferrari 488 GTB. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 10.24 s to the Honda Civic Type R (FK8)'s 13.64 s, a margin of 3.40 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.58 s against 5.13 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Honda Civic Type R (FK8) 0-60 time?
The Honda Civic Type R (FK8) reaches 60 mph in 5.13 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.64 s at 107.4 mph.
What is the Ferrari 488 GTB 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 488 GTB reaches 60 mph in 2.58 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.24 s at 138.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Honda Civic Type R (FK8) trips the lights at 107.4 mph and the Ferrari 488 GTB at 138.0 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 — 9 of 10 for the Honda Civic Type R (FK8) and 10 of 11 for the Ferrari 488 GTB. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
