Let me take a stab at deciphering your code...

"Can't drive" to me means not powershifting, using too much clutch which kills time, not knowing where the powerband is (gear vs. rpm), rowing technique and speed, burnout technique, launching technique, etc, etc, etc.

People who can drive get every last drop out of there car.

Fast shifting, knowing how to work the clutch, not shifting too early, not bumping the limiter every other gear, not missing gears, not launching too high, not launching too low, choosing the right gear to start in when roll racing. Thats about all of them I can think of right now.
