Yes, yes and no. Course records can be broken and the stages are modelled on
real Rallyes. The course records, however, are (supposedly) Richard Burns'
times in the sim.

This is what Ive done for years. I picked up a couple of old end tables at
a garage sale and I put one on each side of my lazyboy then mounted my wheel
on a piece of ply 1/2"x12"x48" which resides between the end tables creating
a very comfy semi***pit.

One of the biggest thing differentiating driving sims from driving games is
how critical pedal input is. When you have a physics model that properly
handles weight transfer and a
tire model that properly translates that into grip or slip, what you do with
your feet on the pedals is often more important than what you do with your
hands on the wheel. Think of how much more involving it is to use analog
steering over buttons, then multiply that by three.
