Why can't I get into racing sims?

Yep, I prefer arcade racers too. I would much rather drift around a corner in Ridge Racer or ram some traffic in Burnout than trundle along in Gran Turismo. Nothing wrong with that at all :)

Actually, you can do that in GT also just have to do it right.  You can also wall ride.  There are cheap tactics but usually driving like you should has better results.  However,  you can bounce off the computer cars in some turns and actually do better than driving the way you should.
