That's exactly how I won my F1 car on GT3. First endurance race I finished, all thanks to my Zonda scraping round the walls for about 150 laps.

comparing the merits of them by the standard of the video games

I always did it properly and had fun with the cones :*)

Don't get me wrong, the cones kept me occupied for a good 10 laps or so - but after that it was off to the other room while the car slowly became flatter on one side.

More skill to drive around in a circle

Out of interest, are the F1 cars the fastest out of Indy, NASCAR, A1 and other mainstream racing cars?

the driver's skills are used to attempt to stay awake during a 500 lap race.

and people say the GT games are good racing simulators

Motorcycle racing is so much better than any form of car racing today.

Grab a beer, sit back and relax.
