How realistic do you want to go? Live For Speed is pretty much the most realistic you'll get but you need a wheel. Mind you the game is so cheap (free demo too) the cost of a wheel isn't so bad.

And you can do this

I agree with MWF, live for speed 2 is very good.

2 other games I would highly recommend is GTR and GT Legends

Rfactor is pretty cool but when I tried the original demo felt it wasn't as realistic feeling as LFS (although sounded infinatly better) maybe I should look into it again.
