Video is nice, but misleading. More than likely this was compared to "just" a 911 Turbo. Did the 458 or 911 driver use their launch control? If the test had been done with the 911 Turbo S, the Turbo S would have owned them until at least 60. Every test I've seen for the Turbo S shows 1/4 mile times in the high 10's. R&T recently tested a Turbo S that did a 10.7 1/4 mile I believe. Otherwise, after 125-130mph the other two would begin to walk the 911.
