The wagon is not much slower. There are a lot of modified, i.e. higher boost
and or adjustable wastgates on the turbos out there and if it was a quattro
they are very efficient at getting the power to the ground. Next time race it
around a _dry_ corner, your Verde will definately smoke it if it is not
slippery.
