One thing to remember is that the golf was setup to be a track car and nothing else. IIRC the golf had 580bhp, the lambo looked like a diablo but it could've been a murcielargo and if it was then they have about the same power but the golf would be lighter and in a straight line it would win and also around corners it would win. Sure if a race driver was in the lambo then it wouldn't be so easy but I have no doubts the golf would win as it is setup to live on a race track, the lambo hasn't.

I've seen a vid which was a race between 6 or 7 supercars, two were a lambo murcielargo & a gallardo and another was a honda nsx. Now the honda 'only' has around 300bhp where as the lambos have over 500 but round the corners nothing could keep up with the nsx and it was only on the straights that the lambos reduced the gap and if the guy in the nsx didn't miss a shift on the last lap, he would of won. So it proves that a fast car on a race track is not all about power.
