Modifying the cars, tailoring it up to what you want can help - but can also frustrate you.

I tend to have kept those cars around the longest, where I can enjoy driving so much, that eventually, I will mute all thoughts and "noise" in my daily life. The Mk2 GTI does that, the E39 Cruiser does it remarkably well, and the M3 does. All the others, I use as a tool (=daily workhorses) or sell.

But don't worry, you are not alone. Definitely not.

Adding to my earlier comment, and as I mentioned in another thread as well, a good placebo could be to rent specific cars, either on Turo or on the track.

Has anyone found that to be working?
