McLaren 720S vs Porsche 911 Turbo S (992)

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the McLaren 720S is the quicker car, covering it in 9.96 s at 145.5 mph against the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992)’s 10.19 s — a margin of 0.23 s. To 60 mph the McLaren 720S takes 2.67 s and the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) 2.34 s.

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

Questions

Is the McLaren 720S or the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) faster?
The McLaren 720S. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 9.96 s to the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992)'s 10.19 s, a margin of 0.23 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.67 s against 2.34 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the McLaren 720S 0-60 time?
The McLaren 720S reaches 60 mph in 2.67 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 9.96 s at 145.5 mph.
What is the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) 0-60 time?
The Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) reaches 60 mph in 2.34 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.19 s at 135.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The McLaren 720S trips the lights at 145.5 mph and the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) at 135.1 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 — 10 of 11 for the McLaren 720S and 9 of 11 for the Porsche 911 Turbo S (992). Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
