I think you've run out of variables here
If the Hog is faster than the Jug, with less thrust available, the Jug MUST have more drag--no way outta that one.
Zoom climb, OTOH, depends on what kind of zoom you're talking about. Start both planes at max speed, level flight, and zoom, and I'll bet the Hog wins every time. Lighter, more speed to start with, lower stall speed.
But which plane reaches a higher DIVE speed? Zoom from a dive is based on kinetic energy along with the basic thrust/lift/weight properties of the plane. If two planes dive to the same speed, the heavier plane has more KE, right? If the Jug dives to a higher speed than the Hog (not sure, but certainly possible) then it's got an even greater advantage in the initial zoom.
You've also got to consider prop efficiency and supercharger performance at the "top of the zoom" where the plane's performance is being maxed out. Was the Jug's prop a better "climb prop" than the Hog's? Did the blower kick in at the same point.
More data required to get to the bottom of this one, I'd say...
Plus, you have to wonder if the lack of "distinct" turn performance differences in the FMs of the planes has its root in the way drag is calculated or applied in the sim. If so, it'll be hard to match sim plane tests to real plane data.
