I have many racing simulators. been a racing sim fan for along time... since Microprose Formula One grandprix (1992) on the Amiga.
Here are a few of my favorite racing sim games :-
Grand Prix 4
GTR2 (my favourite)
GP Legends
Was using a gamepad to play.... not easy. But i just talked my wife into letting me spend NZ$600 on a Logitech G27. :yeah:
And now i'm looking at taking up iracing. Just gotta talk the wife into letting me spend more $.:yep:

I use the Logitech G27, and most of the time I race iRacing. Its expensive with its subscription stuff but also the best by some margin.

Is that caused by the way your pedals sit ?
I used to get that in flight sims until I got logitech G940 flight controllers.
Pedals are set WIDER apart. That eliminated the leg pains.

I'm getting back into Racing. No new flight sims since RoF and SH5 speaks for itself.
I guess I want to do something different for awhile.

No, you cant race offline. You can practice as much as you want outside the official servers, but the game is launched from their website. Its expensive as hell, but also way better than the other titles so I guess you have to decide if its worth it. I sure think so.
