Boy this thread could go South easily. IMO, you have to segregate originals and those attempting an accurate replication, cars meant for street duty, and finally cars shaped like a cobra with suspension and chassis designed for the track. If talking about the latter, the cobra wins against any production car.

As an example: My still incomplete heavily modified ffr (cobra tribute, not replica) comes in at less than 2,100 pounds with a full cage, full aero package, modern brembo brakes, 700+hp, wide rubber, and quality racing suspension. It would be unrealistic to think any production street car would keep up at the track.
