Yes, but if you get the visuals right your brain just fills in the rest. There's a thing called Field of Vision (FOV) which is critical to get right so you get a proper sense of speed. Its taken a while for me to get that right, and tbh I still need the monitors closer, but with a proper sense of speed, muscle memory takes over for braking & steering. Cutting out external stimuli helps with immersion too so I tend to run with the lights off so that the monitors are the primary focus.

Yes, you can do better. Full motion rigs that can simulate g forces are available, but far more complex and expensive than I want to get involved in
