If you want to compare apples to apples, the only true apple-apple test is to have 2 identical cars race. But at that point, it is not a competition between cars, its a competition between drivers.
Anyway, it doesn't really matter too much, because who the winner is in any race, can be argued. You could say that in your video, the GTR won the race, which it did. If you're a nerd like me though, I would say "maybe, sure, but the Tesla is still cooler". EV Cars are fast, quiet, more energy efficient, higher tech, blah blah blah blah... Taking Tesla out of the equation for a minute, if you race an EV Car against a Mustang for example, The Mustang will probably win, but wasting a lot of energy to do it. Hence, to me, EV is "cooler" and always "wins".
Peace.

Hey Mark,
I guess we can forget that the bases of your post was about an EV destroying a gas car...
This is what we call back peddling...
How about we take a road trip me in a gas car you in your EV..
Say MTL to Halifix... How many days will that take you should take me less than 18 hours...
I have nothing against EV cars they are great commuter cars.
But they are not as green as you seem to think they are. Where do you think the power comes from?
To meet the power demand of a shift to EV cars what do you think would need to happen to buildup the power grid? Copper wire doesn't grow in a farmers field.
How about the different parts that go into making the car.
When you start to factor in the big picture your nice carbon foot print does not seem so green. Add to it the disadvantages EV's currently have and what would be needed to compensate for them...
