It’s pretty much saying “I like to sit in my chair and pretend to be a racecar driver.”
Would it be better if they’re into rally or F1?
And would it be worse if it was a VR headset or multiple screens?

There was a recent scandal where a well known player competing in a trackmania tower map challenge was outed as a weirdo 4chan nazi who made/shared weird racist 4chan memes and said slurs, and was summarily kicked out of the competition.
Just from casually watching trackmania stuff, it seems like its big enthusiast community is mostly chill and collaborative, with even the top level of comp players being like a few dozen people who all know each other, constantly play silly no-stakes challenges together, and even if they can get salty about losing don’t really get that aggressive malding edge towards their opponents that some other scenes get.
my interpretation of the above (no outside info): basically they found out he was also on 4-chan. presumably he kept a lid on the 4chan vibe because he knew it would not be tolerated. Eventually, his opsec failed and he was cancelled on the basis of also doing 4 chan stuff.
never heard of this game subculture before but apparently it has higher standards of behavior than most western governments.
It was screenshots of him saying shit and posting racist 4chan memes on a discord server that someone dug up and spread around, leading to him getting condemned by basically everyone else involved in the competition and the bulk of the community watching it.
I don’t think you’re using a sim rig to play trackmania, lol
Yeah I think they cap out at using wheels, and even that’s seen as eccentric compared to using a keyboard or controller.
Not eccentric, it’s just worse. You need to do extremely quick 100% turns from left to right or the other way around, going left to right many times over in like seconds. A wheel just physically takes longer to go from full 100% on one side to the other than KB or controller.
