I've no real experience to counter this... but I can't help the feeling that (and its just an unsubstantiated feeling), this may be true for moon-shining, oval racing and possibly even drag racing where the engine lives at the upper limit of its rev range.
That said, I can't help shake the thoughts that in a Road Racing situation, where an engine is driven through a wider range of its RPM band, I suspect the ability of the webers to "react" and physically suck in more air/fuel at instantaneous moment at a transient accelerator shifts may help justify its "racing reputation".
Like I said - I've no evidence or experience... and to be fair, if I drove a car with one over the other, I'd probably lay down the same lap times, and wouldn't be able to tell the difference without opening the hood.
But that's just me.
