Z VS Golf GTi MK6 At the tracks

the GTI will stand no chance if each car is given equally skilled drivers

This. Drivers make up the biggest difference, but in terms of straight line speed, the Z should be faster (although unsure on the mods). In terms of cornering, the Z should rip the VW apart, because it's RWD vs. FWD, and RWD is usually better on a dry track.

As mentioned with equal drivers a Z would cream a GTI. The GTI's FWD isnt your friend on the track either. Forgot that by track you might mean drag strip. I dont know what type of HP a GTi can make with turbo and boost improvements but acceleration really is only a function of HP, wieght and grip. Who ever has best power to weight and stickiest tires will likely win a drag race. Once you put turns in the equation the FWD VW will struggle.
