IMO it would probably be very easy to get them to at least late 00's GT1 speed with more power and better tires.

Any GTE car would absolutely demolish it's road car counterpart at any track, even the the track version of the Mclaren P1 hypercar is slower than the GT3 650S.

Some lap times from Spa for comparison:
GTE/GT3:
Ferrari 488 GTE - 2:17.632
Ford GT GTE (including sandbag ballast) - 2:18.163
Audi R8 LMS GT3 - 2:18.505


Roadcars:
Koenigsegg One:1 - 2:33.00
McLaren P1 - 2:38.00
Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 - 2:41.69
