Anyone who thinks if they mastered the game can master the track is kidding themselves! I went to Nurburgring couple of years ago with a couple of VW Golf owners even though i never drove on it as a passenger you can tell apart from the visual look of the track theres nothing remotely the same between the game and real life.

For example some of the hills really take your stomache away, certain bends you think theres no way you can take at 100mph+ but if you get it right you can go so fast, some of the blind bends you can take flat out at 130mph the golf was drifting wide that sensation your mind telling this is not possible to go round that corner at this speed your going to die you dont experience in any game!
