Yeah, that means that the driver sucks. Doesn't mean the car sucks. A car CAN BE slower than another car, but that doesn't mean it definitely is. You guys use words in way too loose of a termonology. But I know that you know exactly how you are using them

Isn't the whole argument of "a driver mod" the point of saying that guys sucks at driving? Does a baseball player blame his bat when he can't hit a ball? No. That's the exact some argument here. A car can't be held accountable for the short coming of the person operating it, so therefore the car isn't slower because the driver can't drive. It just means that the driver sucks. Nothing is wrong with the car.
