Wow, I would have thought the real car would have been faster around Leguna Seca. I always found that the game controls don't give you enough feed back to actually feel what a real car would give you and that a real car would give you more control around the circuit.
I guess I am a worse gamer than actual driver.

games are just a loose approximations of real life though, you can get away with a lot in a videogame you can't in real life (like using walls to steer).
Hell, I've been able to do a lap of the nurburgring in under 5 minutes with the right car.. I honestly don't think an F1 car could do that in real life.

I've never owned a gaming system so you'd think I'd be the least likely person to say these games are even close to real life however "electronic simulators", which these games essentially are, do play a big role in my industry and aviation as well. A driving game like they have now is much more realistic than any simulator I would have used just a few years ago or even at present.
