What completely doesn't make sense in this comparison is : How can the Cayman do 100mph in 15.6 secs and at the same time win the 1/4 mile in 13.9 secs @ those same 100mph. If the cayman does 100 mph after the 1/4 mile then in 15.6 secs. Or does the cayman do 100 mph in 13.9 secs.

In any case you have to admit this info is inconsistent and there must be an error somewhere !
