Race Simulator

Anyone know of any race simulators online? Not like a virtual video game where I can literally race a car, like Need for Speed, but one where I can input two separate cars and it simulates the outcome if they were to race in real life (1/4 mile, 1/2 mile).

My buddy thinks that a Volkswagen Golf R32 AT could beat my '06 Shinka RX-8 6MT. I just need some way to verify this, although I already know it's true.

Why would you need a "racing simulator" just Google the quarter miles times of each car. I am sure plenty of magazines and websites have reviewed both cars.

He has a normal 2004 Golf, not an R32. I could beat him in my old 2001 Mercury Cougar with 150 hp, theres no way he could match up to me now

A win for another car is NOT a win for you. Tell your friend to get an R32 or shut up.

plus beat you where, thats relevant to the course isn't it? Are we talking 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, road course, oval track, dirt track, rally runs, or what? Different cars are built for different courses.
