Forget about the myriad of numbers that you'll see posted in response. In real life, I've never managed to beat one in about 3 or 4 races.

One will have trouble with the GTP. It is that torque that kills us. They make 280 pounds I think. I raced a GTX and he was clearly faster (he did not beat the heck out of me but he was faster). And that was on SS mode with 3rd in from 80-115 where is our cars' strongest range on the highway.
