Who said that?

I don't think that's what anyone is trying to say. More that the stock car is plenty capable for a novice driver. And it is a better value to spend money on seat time with an instructor than on modifications. Seat time is just more valuable in general - you can take it with you to another car. And for a novice, most people would recommend the seat time before going hog wild on mods with limited initial return value.

Put that experienced driver in your car and see how much faster he is. And how fast would you be in his stock car? I think that data might give you a reasonable indication of the value of mods vs seat time.

Without a doubt the experienced driver would have got a much faster time in my car, but that's my point. It was a better car and the better car allowed me to get a better time, regardless of skill.

With seat time you are limited by scheduled events and sometimes there are so many entrants that you hardly get many laps in.

Just adding stiffer springs, for instance, makes the car handle so much better over stock sloppy suspension
