Lap time for lap time, the car has no chance. (Talking volume production/street cars now) It's been this way since these comparisons started. I recall a very well done test between the early Gixxer 1000 and the Corvette Z06. The Gixxer DEMOLISHED the Z06. Not even close.m It was faster even in the corners..pulling higher G (equivalent) than the car, and absolutely killingthe car on acceleration and speed.
Of course, when one starts to talk genuine race cars...then the tables are turned very quickly. The MGP bikes are DEMOLISHED by the F1 cars.....and many other race class cars.
But volume street production vehicles - the cars don't stand a chance.
