True.

Based on MT's 2012 Best Driver's car:
Aventador LP 700-4: 4109 lbs as tested, 691 hp. 1:35.40.

Based on MT's article about the 2014 Viper SRT Time Attack:
Viper SRT TA: 3332 lbs as tested, 640 hp. 1:33.62.

Same driver, but different days. 14% power to weight ratio advantage for the Viper, but only 2% advantage in lap time.

(ps - when thinking about "4109 lbs," the word that comes to my mind is "pig." Although I'm sure it's fun to drive regardless. )
