It seems that the author doesn't understand what a "racing sim" is.... This game isn't it.

Usually you don't call arcade racers a racing sim. Racing sim is reserved for games like Forza and Gran Turismo. Arcade racers are typically just called racing games to emphasize that they're light on the simulation aspect. I almost skipped this article because I have no interest in racing sims.

Is "racing sim" in the room with us?

It's a great game if you know what to expect. I've put about 20 hours into this game and am having a blast! Just sit down with my controller and speed down the freeway. The game isn't a sim at all though. Super arcady, which I enjoy when it comes to racing games.

Forza and GT aren't sims either. Look at like iRacing or Assetto cords for something more simmy.

This ARCADE RACER looks like a lot of fun, definitely not a sim though
