    It's very realistic if you have the right setup Michael...and challenging.

    I have the wheel attached to the little table-type thing I made. It then pulls towards me and over my knees as I sit on the sofa. Doesn't move about then. You can feel 'feedback' from the wheel, which has electric motors inside it. Very sophisticated.

    The pedals I've mounted on a flat board, which hooks under the front of the sofa so that you can push hard with your feet and nothing moves around. All screwed and bracketed.

    I race against people from all over the world, online. You can communicate with them on the headphones and mike during the races. Great fun.

    (I have a later model Xbox now... than the white one in the photo).

    I thought you were in your 60's Graham !!!

    I stopped using game consoles about 20 years ago when I found better things like girls and beer.
