Off the line, the 911 GT3 hits 100 km/h in 4.08 s versus 4.27 s for the 718 Spyder. At this point, the 911 GT3 leads by 0.19 s and sits roughly 2 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 GT3 is doing 158 km/h against 156 km/h for the 718 Spyder. The gap is 0.15 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 GT3 crosses the line in 11.85 s versus 12.04 s. The 0.19 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 911 GT3 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 225 km/h versus 224 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 GT3 finishes in 21.23 s versus 21.49 s, with a 0.25 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (313 vs 310 km/h), preventing any comeback.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.16 kg/hp vs 3.46 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.82 seconds. The 0.19 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 GT3 991.1 wins (4,08 s vs 4,26 s).
