You should definately download both, the demos for rFactor and Live for Speed (LFS) S2.

Any of the GTR games is a great choice, with the wheel especially the g25/g27 you'll be amazed. If you get GTR Evo get the Race on addon.. you'll get CTS-V's, Camaro, Challenger, etc...

Live For Speed. It has the most realistic feeling with the G25 in my opinion. Try the demo. You only get slow cars with the demo but I it is still fun.. I purchased the latest verson of the game and its awesome physical interactive experience. The graphics are not particularly good for this day and age but it is a great track racing experience on the PC.

Need For Speed: Shift has a demo out.

Since no one has said it yet: iRacing.

If you are looking for an online competitive sim and don't mind the cost, I recommend iRacing. If you want a slightly dated, yet still fun online sim without the cost of iRacing, Live for Speed(S2) or rFactor. Any of SimBins games are fun too.

(i.e. pull and hold to apply handbrake) I have the Driving Force Pro, and often that's how I use my shifter, because I shift with the paddle shifters on the back of the wheel. Sequential shifter easily doubles as a handbrake. Unfortunately, unless you're having fun and...
