Yes, but too many variable. That's why you are better off comparing lap times rather than positioning on the track. Also to their defense, I would assume for most people it is harder to push a 80K car vs. a 30K car.

I am not sure how familiar you are with reading telemetry. Here is a picture of a lap comparing this guy's GT-R and my best run. You can see exactly where I am gaining and losing time to him on the graph below. And I know for a fact he was another sec or two quicker when he was following me when I did my best lap. Also he was nowhere close to the edge when he pushed for the time below.
