Continuing from an earlier thread "As fast as an Enzo" :

170-180 km/h
Enzo = 0.76
wrx = 0.8
Carerra GT = 0.92

180-200 km/h :
Enzo = 1.67
wrx = 1.8
Carerra GT = 2.13

210-240 km/h (wrx : 210-239 km/h)
Enzo = 4.3
wrx = 4.4 (timing started after upchange to 6th gear)
Carerra GT = 4.61
M3 CSL = 10.2

220-240 km/h (wrx : 220-239 km/h)
wrx = 2.7
Enzo = 2.71
Carerra GT = 3.49
Diablo GT = 3.6
Murci = 4.09
F360 = 7.7

Notes :
1. Enzo, Carerra GT and Murci GROUP TEST by Quattroruote magazine, stats below
2. Diablo GT stats taken from Autospinetti
3. Ferrari F360 tested by Car & Driver magazine
4. M3 CSL tested by Autocar magazine
5. Stats for WRX timed with stopwatch from the 239 km/h video in the Video Section of these forums. There were many problems with this run - slow start, traffic, very bumpy Dhaka roads, no prior test run/practice, extra passenger adding 80kg, etc.
The high temperatures and very high humidity in Dhaka also saps power from the engine - experts say upto a 10% horsepower reduction is possible due to these factors ! Taking into account all these disadvantages I faced, YET, I still managed to match Enzo times achieved by race drivers in Italy and would probably have bettered them if I was with them on the race track !!

I was lucky to read it before it got deleted. It's a pity that many others may have missed it. If you remember what you wrote, you could put it back in. Anyway, your comments were much appreciated, as you obviously know what you're talking about. Thanks.
