I think we can (yes i use mouse) judge if the game is "real" or not, but we have to have some good experience in the game to start juding it. Things like when you turning, how the slide goes, braking,acc, i can "feel" the car, but in a different way, i know when i got a locked wheel, or the tail is about to loose, but i at least needed a good few months to start to "feel" the car. I might be wrong, but that how worked with me, i have raced in IRL with karts, and some small openwheelers, around 100hp, with slicks, im not pro-driver, but once in a while i pay to just do a spin on those cars..if you know what i mean..
