How do you need help? Granted, I knew Nascar's had a lot of grip, and skilled drivers, and I also knew they where faster around a lot of road courses then a good deal of close bodied cars out there.

A year ago, on RSC, we had a disscussion on how well one could do at the Nurburgring compared to a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo. Was an interesting disscussion.

A lot of people's perception of the nascars, are from the super speedways, where they are massively restricted. I've never been to any nascar race, but I hear they have mammoth power off the super speed ways, and that the mid/short tracks are the best to watch. I'm thinking they are putting something near 700HP unrestricted, possibly more.

Not being into Nascar, and not knowing the track, I'm afraid I can't give a good opinion on whether your laptime estimates are accurate or not. Wouldn't surprise me though, as NAscar's nee to corner hard, and they also carry a huge wallop of horse power, combined with the top drivers needing to be ultra precise to stay on top.
