1188500 2011-03-25 00:08:00 Lowndes record is two minutes, 06.8012 seconds where did you get 1.55? Still would love to play v8s 2 is that xbox?

I test cars on high speed ring on GT5. I have the Konica Minolta toyota down to 52 seconds with a controller, friend on his steering wheel can do it in 49 same car.

Really, then the realism isnt as close as I thought!

1188503 2011-03-25 06:20:00 I'm surprised anyone was gullible enough to believe V8 Supercars 2 had any realism in it.

F1 2010 is similar, Even with all aids off you can drive her like a mk3 cortina.

Not that there is anything wrong with that of course, They need to appeal to a broad section of punters.

I know in the real world I wouldn't be able to get one off the starting line.

The chances of a clean lap are nil.

In short I and 99.99999 percent of the population do not have the skill to drive them at all never mind anything close to race speeds.

But hey, Computer "sims" have us all convinced we can do better then real-life times around Bathurst and jump in and out of completely different cars and compete immediately in little 2 lap races on unknown tracks against the pros.


And don't get me started on flight sims.....

i know a guy that got a microlight into orbit in Flightsim X - was hilarious but also debunks its "simness"

will try and find a picture of him doing it

I have been playing simulators since 1985 (driving flying) and the thought of them being like the real thing has never come into my head. I have taken them for what they are simulations, nothing more nothing less.
