Scott's right, it's apples and oranges with different cars and drivers but Mark Donohue in an old car would drive around all but the very most experienced of us in a well prepped PT car like we were cones. He was a world class driver and drove around his competition who were very talented drivers themselves in all kinds of cars and classes.
Using extra hp to keep up with him would probably result in wadding the car in a corner at the end of a long straight because you let it all hang out trying to catch him.
