Virtually all street racing due to four wheel drive, raw power and traction control.
They would be on circuit driving if they weren't banned:

My daughter's Tesla X has the same 0 to 60 seconds as her hubby's Lambo Aventador.

ICE will simply eat dust everytime if they are allowed in the same class.
