A really really well set up rear motor car, with a really good driver, who doesn't make any mistakes will not be a huge amount faster than an average set up, average driver using a mid/front motored car.
The biggest advantage i found was not how quick it was, but how forgiving, with rear motor the wrong line or a minor slip would see you disappearing into the bushes backwards at speed, with mid/front, you just get abit squirrelly, then correct and continue.
