I'm pretty sure the software included isn't your standard video game. It's a real sim based on even better physics and a computer dedicated to the task. It's even got a curved monitor plus monitors on either side for a full view.
It's not just some game that you can go buy online or something. They go in and model the tracks with LIDAR and I think they're the company that shares some of that data with the video game companies.
I think... I'm not 100% positive. Some of this is questions I meant to ask when I went and tested the simulator, but I'm pretty sure I understand it right.
I understand that it would be super awesome. I just think that I would rather drive the real cars over the very best simulation. Even if they can get 9/10ths of the feel, it would still be lacking
The sim would be for amusing myself, wet days, nights, partying with friends, etc...
You can take a sim car to 20 different tracks in a weekend. You can't do that in reality.
It would be fun to try to beat your friends times.
