Yeah, the game does not quite give you the same sensations like when the bump in the braking zone
at the top of the corkscrew, how much you really need to brake for turn 11, whether a single or double apex works for your car on turn 2, the funky off camber feel of turn 5......

Rfactor is my favorite. I actually like its Thill more now I've driven it...
I thought the elevation changes were exaggerated until I drove it at the ACNA event in January (my first track day ever). But now it seems about right.
But I do get what you mean about your exact car spec. Even the ETCC Audi feels all wrong (too easy to drive).
But a Porsche Cup car feels right. And a V8 Supercar is a lot of fun. Like I'm going to get my hands on either one.
I've driven Laguna a lot in too many sims to mention. First time non-virtual this Saturday and looking forward very much.

We'll be taking the Ferrari to Laguna for the first time on Friday. No doubt very different
from the Alfas we've driven there before;-)
Will do T-hill for the first time in April.

For some reason I didn't think I would like Thill but I did. New pavement in July...
... but the current pavement didn't seem bad in a stock S-Line A4. A full up race car might beg to differ.
Thill has a nice flow. And some good challenges, like the a slight crest on entry into off camber Turn 3.

Well, I shouldn't say we didn't run T-hill. We went with another club that shall remains nameless
They could not get their timing equipment sorted, so the same gang of people went out over and over, while the rest of us froze out tailes off in the pits. Funny, a couple of Celica guys (with stock cars) said they were spinning out. Made us feel not so bad for missing out.
