wow, not a single type R showed up to pro solo nats in 21 or 19.

But 2019 and 21 results agree with you, SSC cars putting in 2.3-2.4 60 ft. times and GS Civic Si are matching that, type R should be able to put enough power down by 60ft to over come the physics of the launch.

New car should probably fare better, but not world of difference better, CS Miata in the 2.2 range, would be curious to see type R 60 ft just for fun but I'm not scrolling through a half dozen events to find it.
