I understand that you want to catch a hype on this topic, but you will not succeed. You can not compare a real ride in a race car with a simulator. On a real track, there is one very important and irreplaceable feeling - this is your ass! Alas, the simulator will not repeat this, at least for sure. And yet, someone who drove real cars can understand what is real in the simulator and what reminds or perverts these feelings. If in doubt, grab an earlier version of Sean Clark and compare it with today. Information from the riders greatly changed his mod.
