Okie, when I come to the track, OMG, the stress, the fear and the guts is all over your soul. When you come into the corner in high speed, you feel that your car is on the limit of lost control, and there is 1 car behind your bumpers forcing you.... I think you all will understand what i mean. The real thing is totally more than you can imagine from the TV =.= In real track racing, it wont be a kids that sit on sofa drive a virtual car banging around in the corner and ram some oponents out of the track or even reset the race =.=.....
