Porsche 918 Spyder specs

918 vs 720S 1/4 mile races:

Porsche 918 Spyder half mile speed test by my calculations 12.8 @ 158 mph( which is the attained test speed). Feel free to update this time instead of your estimation of 16 secs @ 170 mph :)

This car is the evidence of Porsche's forgery!
I wonder how exact the same car(according to Porsche's pressroom) First run Hell 7:13.00 and then 6:57.00. It is 16 seconds difference!
You can say Horst von Saurma can't drive...
But I will bet that you can not TRUST Porsche on their times...

Porsche should build a "918 Spyder RS" as a very limited, competetive model to the McLaren P1 GTR. As usual for Porsche it also needs to be street-legal just as the P1 GTR is for a few months now. I'd say 1000 BHP at all / about +150 Nm of torque / reduction of 80 - 100 kg and configurated for the best acceleration (350 kph Top-speed is enough). They shouldn't tune only the V8 but make the electric-motors more powerful as well. With the correct settings Porsche could easily go on with their incredible 0 - 100 kph and even reducing it to ~2.2 seconds. More interesting for Porsche would probably be the 0 - 300 kph time, which should be lowered for more than 5 seconds, so the "918 Spyder RS" would pass the 300 kph mark in less than 15 seconds.

1: There certainly not the best tyre for the track on a dry surface you can get, There are a bunch of options for tyres with as much grip or grippier tyrs for the track you can get, G-Force Rival S, R1s, RE-11s, ContiForce, Z214s, SportMaxxRace, Proxes R888, AD08R, V720s, V710s, And my personal favorites Advan A048s, SO no there not the best tyre you can get, There just getting alot of attention because there on a Z/28, Theres tons of options.

2: This comparison people often forget there ALOT more then tyres, You can have the same tyre on every car, And? Theres the 918 with Awd and Rear wheel steering, Not too mention theres 250lb ft difference between the next highest car, Theres a 200lbs-300lbs weight difference, Between 20bhp and 250bhp difference, Active aerodynamic differences, One car with a manual, So yeah this comparison doesnt do anything, The only thing one should compare it is with the laptimes of the same car.

Trofeo R is the best legal tyre of the dry track. More than a second faster by minute track than cup2.

Sachsenring 1:26.77

the updated Sachsenring laptime that was done at the Sachsenring record day 2016 should be added here (also shown below). Big improvement from 1:30,34 to 1:26,77:

walter troll is getting old and was diagnosed with alzheimer, he needs to quit and spend more time watching his health before he crashes into a human being and blaming the car for his own faults.

Wow how many times did he have to put opposite lock through those corners. And they said the 918 was too easy. No wonder Walter wohrl crashed here

...People....

There are no race cars (apart from F1 and MotoGP) in Fastestlaps.com. So, clearly, this page has nothing to do with RSR.

This page is for 918 Spyder (just like it says) and Weissach package is just an option.

So, the data you see here is best results for all street-legal configurations of 918 Spyder.

This page makes no sense. The name says Porsche 918 Spyder, on the picture we have a closed top 918 Weissach package (Martini Racing livery) and I dont even know where the stats of the 918 RSR or the regular 918 are.

I dont think its surprising at all, Carrera GT, GT1, 962 LeMans, 959, They were all in the same level of excitement, The only thing i find surprising about the 918, Is the 2.2s 0-60Mph time, Thats all, I dont think its an over achiever or an underachiever, I just think it does what it does, Id love one, But id much rather have a S7 TwinTurbo or Zonda F for me, But in a world of cars such as today, Barely anything surprises me, Not as impressed as i used to be 20 years ago.

918 is such an over-achiever. Pleasant surprise from Porsche, just how brilliant this car is and how good it is at producing great numbers - both in straight line and on tracks.

Porsche 918 Spyder runs 9.7 @ 145 MPH Drag Racing 1/4 Mile

Yeah< It broke a bunch of production car records when it was introduced, You can have them 2 ways, One straight from Ultima, Like any other car, Or get a kit and do it yourself, Although i dont think it was the FIRST stock car to go under the 9s, Well, I mean there are a few others that have the "Potential" to do it, And at a strip, It was the first STOCK car to go under the 9s as far as i know, And still looks damn good.

Probably the first "production car" to do it under 10s. But again, is it?
