Default Good Driver

I know the most important part of winning a race is being a good driver... but what exactly do you guys think makes one driver better than another

Driving a car is an art. You have to be able to feel the car as you drive her! Everything from the corners, to the gas pedal to the shifter. You also have to be able to predict situations from practicing..The best thing a good driver will do is seek out the weak points of the driver he is racing with in mear secs..

That's exactly it and it isn't as easy as people think! There are alot of people out there who claim to be good drivers but being good at video games doesn't mean you know how to drive, or mod for that matter. This is real life not Gran Turismo!
