It really depends on the circumstances.
Have a look at the Sardegna 800 leaderboards:
absolutely possible for road cars to beat that race.
But have a look at Sardegna 800 leaderboards:
road cars dont beat race cars, not even a close call
If you think you can compete there (be competitive), feel free to do so
Sardegna Leaderboard: Grind Times for 45 Cars, Strategies, Tunes & FAQ's (post 1.31)
Welcome to Sardegna’s Leaderboards Whether you’re a beginner level or expert, we welcome submissions of all race times with any car (although most people skip Gr.3 cars as the AI uses them in the race). Older race times are good to post as well, so long as they are from after March 30th 2023...

To compete for the absolute top spot at 800 PP, on any track (save for SSX), only Gr.1 cars are viable, and I believe everyone knows that. Hence Praiano's earlier comments on the GT-One, which has been made into a Gr.2 car in the game, without the same downforce and power level of a Gr.1 car. It's not viable against Gr.1 cars, but it's absolutely fast enough to win 800 PP races by a landslide.
The Evo IX is competitive against its brethren (other road cars), though, with lap times that rival or even beat Gr.3 cars, while having similar fuel consumption to a Gr.3 car.

800PP is Gr.2
Gr.1 would be 850 to 900PP
I wondered what you based your comment of "competitive" on, because you didnt specify what you meant in the first place.
Of course a road car of x PP is competitve against another road car of x PP.
There are just exceptions both upward and downward the scale of cars either totally overperforming or absolutely not keeping up.
A 600PP Toyota Alphard can win Tokyo WTC600 and with that is competitive against the AI, but it is absolutely not competitive against most of the cars ingame that are tuned to 600PP, and that by a large margin.

You're right , i've read EVO IV instead IX. Sure the rear diffuser and engine swap turn the car very competitive for WTC800 , It's only 1 stop on Daytona , you can use racing soft even you'll 0 front right tires for the last lap 5 and 10 , it's ok , the car is still sane and relatively fast. Just need max power , downforce and a longer gearbox. 700PP suspension is ok.

It happen again for the 2d time , a weird bug on my Fanatec DD pro. On le Mans Nations race today , just out the pit stop end lap 5 , i've had a partial lost of grip , like i was driving on a wet track . Losing around 4 seconds / lap during 3 laps. Everything coming back to normal for lap 9 and 10. Weird. I hope they will do something to correct this soon. 
EDIT: I've connected my wheel to my PC with the wheel in PC mode and my wheel wasn't updated ... I'll check tomorrow if there is some changes.

It's not Praiano that do you like that, it's the game. I held out for way too long. It only takes 1-2 days of training yourself to switch. You will be happy you made the switch as it opens up many more options for cars and a much more fuel-saving strategy that is impossible with Auto Trans. You just need to figure out the controller setup that works for you. For me, it was X to upshift and [] to downshift. I use motion steering and keep the Gas and Brake on the triggers.

I prefer this car at 700PP than 600PP , for this the original engine version is ok for Tokyo.
On Le Mans of course it's excelent due to low consumption. Also a top car on technicals tracks like Nordschleife or SPA...
You can induce oversteer or drift on corner entry , just stay late on brakes , giving some wheel angle. Not too much because you can lose the rear end easily . It's very reactive.

Enjoy your drive.
This is such a fun, true rally style sidewaysing machine! Makes me smile! Thanks Praiano.
I've always had a soft soft for Lancers, since my first car was a '74 LA Lancer.
Some pics of it attached.

Updated both steering wheel and wheel base. I hope it'll never hapen again. Anyway , i love the next circuit is Watkins Glen. I hate Le Mans with all those stupid penalties.
No racing brakes or pads.

I've had this happen recently too. It was a lot worse for me before the last patch (which was supposed to fix it). There is a trick Tigdney mentioned in a video/stream that seems to work: pause the game, even for a split second, and as soon as you unpause the wheel works like normal. It's sucks when it happens still, but better to waste a split second to pause/unpause than most of a race. I wish PD would get a better fix in.It happen again for the 2d time , a weird bug on my Fanatec DD pro.

I didn't have this car in my collection so I bought it, tuned it and raced it. It's a great drive and (again) a great tune Praiano !
I made a livery for it inspired by a great Lanza Motorsport Giulia, it was the first GIULIA QUADRIFOGLIO racing at the NÜRBURGRING 24H 2020.

No i don't. They are not performant in GT7.
