Ian,

Most of my knowladge came from driving the ring alot 3 years ago in my FC and having tim sit next to me helped alot.

Games are nice, I played the ring in GT4 which is fairly accurate so it helps with knowing the track. Forget about learning to drive lines, the real experience is way different from any game in existance. The game doesn't make you feel the crazy height differences, it doesn't tell you where its safe and not safe to brake. For instance, before eiscurve there is a small bump in the road, normally you would brake around that bump but that is a sure bet to run off the track at that point or loose control because there will be 0 grip on your tires for a fews seconds, you have to brake before the bump, go over the bump, and steer into the corner in such a way that you take that corner, the straight that comes after it, and the next corner asif it was one big corner.

So play the game to get to know where all the blind corners lead to, but nothing beats taking it slow the first few laps and having someone with you who tells you how to drive it. Also if you come there for the first time, ask if you can drive along with some guys that have driven there alot. There is ALOT to learn from being a passenger on the first few laps.
