What Does Your Favourite Racing Game Say About You?

1. Project CARS

If Project CARS is your game of choice, then you have an outstanding thirst for knowledge. You like to research everything before you make a buying decision. Before paying someone else to perform a minor home or auto repair, you are likely to find the solution and repair it on your own. Internet articles about little known facts and obscure stories are of the most interest you. If two mates were arguing over a fact, you would promptly use your phone to find out more and correct them. Even though you like to hold all this knowledge, you don’t come across as a know-it-all. You are sensible in social situations, and you choose your words wisely.

2. Forza Horizon 2

Like the endless possibilities in Forza Horizon 2, your mind is constantly at work imagining the most creative endeavours. On holiday, you are most likely to opt out of a guided tour and show yourself around your destination. You are the first of your mates to try new places to eat, and always seem to find the offbeat little shops and restaurants that are hidden gems among the more travelled locations. You can’t say no to a road trip, especially when it leads to a new place. You enjoy being in the midst of all the action, choosing music and food festivals over a night at the movie theatre. If you get bored in one location, you never hesitate to move to the next.

3. DiRT Rally

DiRT fans, you have an attraction to speed and little patience. When it rains or when you see an exceptionally curvy road, you can’t resist pressing the petrol just a little more. You love the open road and driving fast, but you would never do anything to intentionally put other drivers in danger. The hardest part of your day is being forced to sit in stop-and-go traffic. You are the type of person who taps their foot and watches the second hand ticking on the clock through the last few minutes of work or school, just dying to get out. You have a good sense of humour and enjoy being around mates, but you don’t demand to be the centre of attention.

4. GTA V

If you’re addicted to GTA V, then you are either a street pharmacist, a pre-pubescent boy or someone who is very confused about racing. You think you’re badass in all aspects of life, and you often fantasise about how you would handle everyday situations with swag. When it actually comes down to business, you shy away from confrontation. You spend your hours behind the controller picking up ladies of the nights and running heists to compensate for your boredom. Earning money in GTA V is more rewarding to you than earning real money (unless you use it to buy the next GTA game).

5. iRacing

If you thought “iRacing is not a game, so why is it on this list?” then you are a true iRacing fan. Indeed, iRacing is far from a video game. It is an absolutely stunning simulator that should be used as a real tool to improve your driving. You know your fastest lap times on every track, and it translates into your real life. You are a perfectionist who knows precisely how long it takes to drive from home to school or work each day. Every curve, hill and bump in the road is etched into your memory at first sight. You don’t find joy in showing off your accomplishments to others, but you take great self pride in your work. A simple pat on your own back will do, then it’s on to making more improvements.

6. Assetto Corsa

Assetto Corsa racers appreciate cars for their beauty, but they are not afraid to use them for their intended purpose. If your favourite racing game is Assetto Corsa, you are the type to take great care of your ride. You put in that little bit of extra effort in order to wash your car properly, and you enjoy the brilliant shine. It doesn’t matter if you drive a complete pile of rubbish or a brand new sports car, you still give it the attention it deserves. You believe in taking care of all your possessions, not just cars, in order to get the maximum use out of them. While you tend to have some perfectionist qualities, you don’t get too upset when things go out of order.
