Off the line, the 911 GT3 RS hits 100 km/h in 3.85 s versus 4.08 s for the 911 GT3. The 0.22 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the 911 GT3 RS is doing 164 km/h against 158 km/h for the 911 GT3. The gap is 0.16 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 GT3 RS crosses the line in 11.57 s versus 11.85 s. The 0.29 s gap represents roughly 16 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 911 GT3 RS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 232 km/h versus 225 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 GT3 RS finishes in 20.63 s versus 21.23 s, with a 0.60 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (314 vs 313 km/h), preventing any comeback.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (2.74 kg/hp vs 3.16 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.61 seconds. The 0.22 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
