I'm sure it does. But if you take the 'current' sims (iRacing, LFS, netKar Pro, rFactor etc), then rFactor, GTR, GTR2 and all the games that use the same physics engine are EASILY the worst.

Some say iRacing is the best, but I can't afford/justify it.
LFS is pretty good, but is awaiting a patch to improve aspects of the sim (including but not limited to tyres)
netKar Pro is undergoing a bit of a revelation, with several single seaters and possibly the best public tyre model going.

Of them, only iRacing has any quantity of real tracks and cars (though several cars in LFS are real, and most of the rest and in nKP are heavily based on real cars). nKP has various fan-made real tracks for download, but they're all awful and are no more useful than looking at an ordinance survey map for teaching track layouts.

I play LFS and nKP. They can be stunningly useful for a novice driver.
