Any car can be made fast in any way with enough money, simple as that... A hummer could be made to auto-x. Would it take at least 100k? Yes. Would it be as fast as a stock 80s civic? Probably not, but still fast for its class. The fact is that a 13 second civic is considered fast, whereas a 13 second supra/skyline is considered slow. People don't expect as much from a civic, therefore it passes its expectations easier. Same with my SUV. I don't expect it to out-run anything on the road, but when I do outrun something I am happy because it was unexpected, although I have outrun many a modded sport compacts (gotta love 18" chrome rims on a 180hp car)... basically my point is you can't rule out any type of car in any type of competition until you know how it has been modded.
