Years ago when I was playing racing games with a keyboard, Race Driver: GRID was one of my favorites. It has cool cars, it's fun but not easy, and by far the biggest feature was the destruction. The cars would get damaged in various ways: if you went sideways into a wall, you'd have a dent on the side of your car, if you changed to 1st gear while going 150 km/h you'd bust the gearbox, damaging the axis would make the car constantly turn to one direction, damaging the engine would reduce performance, and best of all, driving too fast into a wall ends your race. So you can't drive completely recklessly. I thought it was cool how you could hire another driver for your team, who could win more money but who would cost you some.

I played it a bit with my G27 driving wheel when I got it, and I was excited. But the driving felt awful. It was closer to steering a boat, I guess. I didn't feel a connection between the steering wheel and the car. I stopped playing after a while and went on for a search for a better driving experience.

I doubt GRID: Autosport is going to be any better. The best non-simulation racing game I've played with the steering wheel is NFS: Shift with the Gran Turismo mod. It's not entirely realistic, but I think it's enjoyable. Maybe I should play it again sometime soon...
