On a level (several levels down) I have been playing Forza 3, since it has a 986 Boxster S. I used it to learn Road Atlanta, and am learning Sebring on it. I recently scored a good deal on a Fanatec GT2 Wheel and CSR Elite pedals (the one with the load cell, but not the top of their line clubsport pedals) and am using it on their Wheelstand along with the 6 speed shifter (again not the "clubsport" one but the regular one). The stand just came in this week so I only have a few sessions on it.
It has helped me to learn the tracks, but I am not sure how accurate the rest of it is. I can tell you that I am faster with the wheel/pedals than I was with just the controller or the "U" shaped wireless wheel, with autobraking off. I still have a few ghost laps where I ran with all the aids on, basically you can run at WOT all the time and it will brake and shift for you, and if you stay on the line it shows you it does a good job. I am getting close to those with the autobraking off using the wheel/pedals.
Now I leave the line off as it seems to favor more of an earlier apex than what I am comfortable with (maybe the difference between a real racing line vs a safer late apex DE line? I am unsure. It may be that I need to work on my sim skills more)
I have a PC I could probably dig out and use for iRacing, but they don't have the Boxster and I don't have tons of time so for now it has just been the Xbox. I have Forza 4 and Forza Horizon and they are a lot of fun as well, but I have mostly been playing 3 since it has the Boxster.
There is a thread on rennlist for folks that do iRacing and they get together every week and race I believe.
