Oh boy, here we go again. If it's an option then we can choose how we want
to play the game and not be constrained by some *** sim racer's vision
of what's realstic and what's not. Give me the option, please.

GP3 can, SCGT can. Any others?

  Hmmm......aren't those 2d physics sims?  Never spent much time with
either.

No, 3D. If the car can leap off the track (flip in the air)  then it is
using a 6degree of freedom physics engine I believe.

Well, it could be a hardcoded special effect in some games I suppose. But
can the cars in N3 flip in the air? Nope. SCGT is a 3D physics engine and so
is GP3, that I know for sure.
