Racing Games

So now it;s on the road I'm looking towards 1st track day.

Are there any "accurate" caring games that can be used to practice UK tracks beforehand? Especially cheap or free ones! WOuld like to get a feel for how the corners look. Not sure how much help it would really be but beats working

Thanks
Ed

I'm on the lookout for one, too.

I kept meaning to try it a while ago, but LFS (Live For Speed) appears to have what you're looking for. It has a facility to create custom tracks, and I'm sure I saw some forums that had most of the UK tracks ( inc. the TG test track IIRC... ). lfsforum.net appears to have some; racesimcentral.com too.

forza motorsport 2 is a great game to play if you want to practice you have an option for a suggested line and braking times ect

Most of which are pants. I like racing games for what they are but the real life tracks aren't very close to the real thing at all. Cadwell and Oulton are shocking. Mind you, not bad for free...
