Me too...

The physics may be right, but they just aren't transmitted well to the
driver :(

A lot like flying a radio controlled helicopter.  Anyone in here who has
been/is in that suicidal hobby knows what I'm talking about :)

You are making hundreds of tiny, minute control corrections, and yet the
heli isn't giving you any feedback at all because you are not in it.

Makes it quite a challange, I'll tell ya!
