Check out these in-house estimations
0-60 mph: 3.37 sec (pre-shift) or 3.86 sec (post-shift)
0-100 mph: 7.43 sec-> 60-100 = 3.57 sec
Street 1/4-mile: 11.62 sec @ 129.22 mph
Top speed: 209 mph (theoretical maximum velocity: 216 mph)

Yo Corvolet3! I know you said you got bored of hypercars (I won't!) so I thought you might like this>
TWO back to back Guiness World Records for the standing 1 mile and COMPLETELY unbeknownst to me they apparently sold road legal identical specifications supercars!
https://johnnybohmerracing.com/2018/04/badd-gt-coffee-table-book/
This car did>
https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/fastest-standing-mile-%e2%80%93-car
Quote>"The fastest standing mile in a street car was 283.232 mph, achieved by Johnny Bohmer, owner of Performance Power Racing (USA) and Driver of the BADD GT at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA, on 16 October 2012. Johnny used a 1700 horse power 2006 Ford GT to set the record."
Very impressive! I thought you'd like it! I certainly did! I've got alot of time for him! ;)

Corrected results:
Reduced driveline efficiency (from 1) back to 0.85 - top speed drops from 334.0333 to 309.9246km/h
Reduced drag coefficient rating (from 0.43) to 0.35 - top speed rises from 309.9246 to 334.0043km/h (not exact, but extremely similar to original result)
Reduced rear axle load coefficient (from 0.669) to 0.668 - 0-60mph matches once again (here's the funny part: Ford didn't technically claim a 0-60 time, but they approved of Road & Track's initial 3.8sec figure before Car & Driver went on with the very optimistic 3.3sec figure; Ford later republished Motor Trend's figure of 3.4sec on their own website.)
New and corrected results:
0-100km/h in 3"94
0-200km/h in 11"16
0-300km/h in 31"96

If the 3.364:1 differential ratio was replaced in the standard GT with a 3.9:1, then the 0-100km/h time will remain the same, but the 0-200km/h time will drop slightly to 10sec flat, but the 0-300km/h time will rise to 27.5sec. Top speed is now 204.2616 mph (328.7271 km/h).
