PC simulator for fun / helping learn - Speedysteve
Are there any PC based driving simulators to help learners / for a bit of fun try driving on a PC simulator?
I have a wheel and pedals (G25 with 3 pedals, so have clutch as I am an avid Grand Prix Legends, GT Legends and Race07 fan with many hours of enjoyable on online racing behind me.

I realise this will never be the same this as a real car or the expensive sims they might use at some of the schools but I might be fun and help my 12 / 14 year olds who are keen.

There is one on Amazon but I have no idea if it is any good...

Any one tried any?

Not so much of a simulator but Midtown Madness 2 by Microsoft is quite realiistc. I spent hours on that game years ago with pedals and wheels. It has lanes trafficlights and AI react to your movements, It has the full city of cisco ina nd the golden gate bridge
