I reckon with the conditions other hot hatches have had, it could do very well. But no one has tried yet. The time set was by a very good driver but it was on an open course (other cars around) with no track prep. Get a closed, dry circuit with a race driver and I reckon it would do another giant killing Top Gear style lap.
Bedford West (where I tracked mine) was a little too tight/small to take advantage of its power; it favours very small, light cars.
