Very cool! I was actually thinking about going the exact opposite direction.

There’s an open source “recomp” of Gran Turismo 3 that supposedly works pretty well on a laptop. I kinda want to hook it up so that the Zwift ride provides the power output for the car.

If 1w = 1hp then I could probably win some of the first career races right now. And if I get back in shape, I could eventually hang with the base model WRX’s.

That's nice! I have a half-built Eurotrucker mod somewhere for similar vibes. Never worked out a way of doing steering input that wasn't incredibly awkward, though. Using buttons on handlebars would make me worry that one day, on an IRL bike, I'd try to turn left and end up slamming on my front brake.
