There are some WarBirds virtual fighter pilots that
fly fighters in real life, and while they still
enjoy the simulation, I've seen some posts
on some aspects of sims that they feel are counter
to maintaining their real life "instincts".
And so during their online sim time (and in government
simulators), they consciously do things differently
than they would otherwise if their only concern was
success at the simulation.

Presumably it would be much the same for racing drivers.
Certain aspects might be judged as "bad training".
