Thanks for the positive comments (you know who you are)

Even a veyron does 0-60in 2.6 and 60-100 in2.9 closer figures but still beaten by the lower speeds..
Anyway im sure i saw clarkson on TG go mad for a merc that did the approx 60-100 in a mad fast time that may have been an exception to the rule..im thinkin it was a a very big engined cl500amg or sumthing like that...must have been a repeat from around 2008?..

There are some supercars that complete the 60-100 faster. The Koenigsegg CCXR is one example.
There are others. But as a rule, 0-60 is always faster for the reasons already explained

Its funny that...how youve gone from"not knowing much" and "needing it explaining in dummy technology"
In just under a month youve gone from dummy not knowing much...to expert know it all..
It amazes me the rate some people learn things these days...
Thats from not understanding the basic susspension on a car to being a professor on the inner workings of momentum and the forces and friction of acceleration on a moving body.....Amazin..

Very nice 206, can't imagine how much time and effort has been put into creating that.
1 thing i would say to eddie206, instead of thinking in terms of physics i'd just like to through my 2cents in there.
Going from 0-10mph on a pushbike will be quicker than 10-20mph cause its that much harder to do the 2nd acceleration. Exactly the same with cars.
E5GDM Is right with the physics though.
Just to explain about what Lee1985 said, the 60-100mph is only faster if the cars have a savage enough acceleration and the slingshot from the 1st 0-60mph helps to overcome drag, also depends where the engine is in its power/torque band.
Still a great read
Regards, Richard.

#83: Re: 206 turbo (280bhp) Vs Porshe 996 Turbo (500bhp) Author: LiamMiller, Posted: Sun Jun 01, 2014 10:28 am ---- LOL, as if I'm only just reading this thread now, bringing this back up (with knowledge on physics from uni, actually scrap that, basic physics from school!), the faster the car goes the more air resistance there is, 0-60 has barely any air resistance, but as said before, when the speed increases, the air resistance does too. So this the 206 GTi 180 takes what 7 seconds to get to 60, correct? then takes another 14 seconds to get to 100 (figures rounded up or down) it takes treble the time to do that extra 40 to get to 100 (7x3=21), same with the zonda (3 and a bit seconds to 60, 9 and a bit to 100). This isn't hard and eddies theory is no where near correct.
P.S Sorry for bringing this back up LOL
