There is nothing else than force between the contact patch of your tires and the pavement; HP is just a concept, just like acceleration, torque and speed.
The other real things involved in the performance of any vehicle are mass, time and space.
Your car is only an energy transformer: from chemical energy in the fuel to mechanical energy at the contact patches.
Having similar masses, the car able to transform more energy in less time wins the race.
