The Jamaican track legend, Usain Bolt, is an enigma for everyone. Being the fastest man alive is still acceptable. However, how can a human be as fast as a racing car? If it would have been a simple claim or statement by anyone, perhaps we could have simply ignored it, but there’s scientific empirical proof that Bolt is giving a tough fight to some medium-powered sports cars.

Usain Bolt is widely regarded as the best track athlete the world has ever seen. Some even consider him the best Olympian ever. Though these titles are nothing but an extended denotation of an incredible career, he has led.

How Usain Bolt will perform against a sports car?

As per analysis, Usain Bolt’s 100m record of 9.58 seconds, his acceleration becomes 9.5 m/s2  and his top speed becomes 43.92 km/h. If we calculate that in mechanical terms, he generates 3,5 horsepower and a power to weight ratio of 26.587 kilograms per horsepower (kg/HP).

Now, if we compare these numbers with some of the medium-powered sports cars like the Porsche Boxster S, Ferrari 458 Italia, and the Bentley Bentayga, the results are shocking.

Even though Bolt accelerates faster than all these cars, his top speed is only 43.92 km/h. Whereas Porsche Boxster S covers 100 meters in 6 seconds, Bentley Bentayga covers the same distance in 5.0198 seconds, and the Ferrari 458 Italia in 4.95 seconds.

So can Bolt beat these cars?

Obviously, Usain Bolt can’t beat these cars. He can’t compete against a speed of over 300 km/h with his top speed of about 44 km/h. However, his numbers are still fascinating and he is nothing short of a superhuman.

It’s been five years since the legend has retired from the track, but he is still the fastest man alive. How long will it take before anyone could actually cross that mark?
