Real drivers face death and that's something simulations will never give you. You make balsier moves when you don't think you'll fly into a wall.

The safety rating system in iRacing makes the stakes feel very different to just loading up Mario Kart. You play with your real name, and safe driving is rewarded - to get A rated you have to treat other drivers with respect.
