A key fact most pro-touring folks forget. Hence many cars being driven by other drivers and not the owners.
In the track community you'll hear stories about stock looking subarus and occasionally oddball cars like mazda speeds showing up to track events and dominating the entire field. Why? not power, its the driver, and the driver knows the car.

That is kind of what I was getting at Dane. I think we agree? Too much power can be a waste beyond a certain point. Or at the least harder to manage and actually hurt lap times if you're spending time correcting or fighting the power delivery. But then again it all comes back to the driver there too.
