This is actually a fallacy with respect to racing. While higher HP cars might be able to 'cover up' mistakes in a DE type event, when you are racing, everyone is pretty much even, that HP isn't doing much good at 'covering up mistakes' because your competator is using his to increase the lead or catch up to you.
