The key I believe at these speeds is having a vertically mounted GT3 type rear spoiler to counter the over steer leading to a spin seen so often on many RWD cars at the track.
Not really. That wing is not doing much, it is set very flat.

Apex used to have a GTS front lip (my friend broke it, while also dropping oil on 4km of track and destroying the engine!). With the front lip, the rear spoiler is more important and would be set for more downforce.

Single biggest difference are the tyres, followed by pads and suspension.

That car was way to fast to hire out to the public. Even their M2 was crazy fast.
