My new toy (not creepy)

Well I guess some people might think it is creepy, a 47 year old woman sitting at her desk using this:



That's a Logitech Momo, like this (it also has pedals, not shown):



People keep telling me that skills honed with simulated racing actually DO transfer somewhat to real driving. Starting from literal zero as I am, I figure I can use all the help I can get. I went over to a friend's house and got to try out a totally pimped out rig with a massive display, real racing seat, like a car game in an arcade. It was sooooooooooo much fun! And if it'll help me get my head around things faster, all the better. My friend is going to help me out by loading up some extra tracks & cars (for GTR).

Anybody else out there dabble in sim racing?
