the Enzo did pretty well for a car that weighs slightly more than 3000 pounds.

how do these numbers compare to those superfast street legal bikes like that ninja zr-1?

Re: Autocar's 0-100-0 shootout

Slightly off-topic... I saw a Gallardo the other evening on the street as I was exiting the freeway. Its a successful design -- immediately recognizable as a Lambo, but it took a few seconds to regiser that it was a Gallardo and not a Murcielago or Diablo.

additional data:

The Boxster S and M3 were still behind the 111R at the 1 mile mark, passing it at 35.84 secs for the Boxster and 35.20 for the M3

sorry......

ATY: did they have the data split into two parts so you could see the differentials in acceleration versus braking times? i betcha it's compound bar graphs to show time to 100mph and then time to 0mph?

Re: Autocar's 0-100-0 shootout

this was all posted on an Elise forum. I assume the data was broken down for each car. I haven't seen the issue or a sccan of it.

I think there were more cars than just those listed, too.
