Driving a car above 200mph shouldn't be easy, and to do a perfect lap can be reaaaaaaaly hard, if you drive in real life you now how hard is to do the things you try in GT5, and it's "so life like"...

But newcomers will love the Assists, altought for the Challenges you will have to turn them down as is impossible to beat those times with assists (they make the car slower and harder to drift, because prevent whell spin and sliding).

With time and patience you'll honey your skills and maybe like it.

I know that driving a car at 200mph shouldn't be easy. I'm well aware. I haven't raced any of the super cars in GT5, and I'm not saying GT5 isn't doing a good job of simulating the real world. However, driving my crap honda 100mph I shold be able to break it down to 40 or so and make a corner without too much trouble since I can in real life. Nor was I arguing that I should be able to make a perfect lap. However, I should be able to make a decent lap, but it takes me forever to get it down in GT5. I think my biggest problem with the most realistic racing sims is that I don't feel the car. Without feeling the car I have no sense of speed and from there everything goes downhill.

i think you really need a driving wheel. i never played GT5 with DS3, so i don't know. But with the driving wheel (my dfp), i can feel the car. the ff in gt5 is quite good.

also what honda model do you drive in real life, does the car have assists on. did you turn on the same assists in GT5? i tired once to turn off abs completely and race with my turned civic type-r, it is much harder to control as i didn't take time to practice the threshold braking. but again, you will need driving wheel to feel it.
