    Great video!!! It's cool to see how sim racing actually lines up with real life. The 911 R is much easier to drive at speed than the Cup car, but it feels a lot bigger and less responsive. To me the sweet spot of everything are Formula 3/4 cars. In the games at least they are like wearing an exoskeleton or riding a motorcycle with aero.

    This car is humongous to be taken seriously for a sporting car, with electric power steering, it is pure garbage. Having to "trust the rear end" is literally the worst attribute to have in any sports or track car, and is likely related to the EPS. If a company with all the efforts toward racing performance makes a product like that, then has a steering wheel that makes saving a spin much reduced is repulsive. Still the too light porpoising front end from the inherent obsolete poor balance is laughable, if it wasn't preposterous.
