You have no chance in a straight line drag. However, on the track, you could keep up.

I am struggling to find an emoticon to properly show my reaction to this, so I will settle for a stupid one.

Really? At our local autoX events a guy in a Civic hatch and another in a new MX-5 Miata runs circles around all sorts of hardware; Porsche's, Viper's, Ferrari's, you name it.

Driver skill on a road course is greater than car.

I didn't say anything about driver skill. Stock for stock with similiarly skilled drivers that is just a stupidly optimistic comment to make.

Besides, autoX is hardly track racing. The advantage for the cars you list go up exponentionally when placed on a real track, not a lot with cones. This is not to insult autoX I love doing it myself but it's comparing apples to oranges.
