i think the list depends on available data
and if they didn't do road testing on the 930 in 1980, or they didn't do a quarter mile , it's not in the list

still, that 931 did pretty good, only lost .4 of a second on a lap
despite the 44 horses handicap
and with 50% better milage, so in endurance terms, that Ferrari would not have beaten it...it would simply not have been able to out run the 931 enough to not loose it's lead in the pits
