At least getting a feel for the steering differences and appropriate steering corrections. Virtual environment is always the safest and no consequences for damaging your car :P Plus if you're like me you're waiting for your FRS so all you can do is pretend...
Actually, Chad, I think this is a pretty decent idea, as long as you bear in mind the lack of peripheral vision and G forces. Any simulation game should do, like GT5 or Forza 4. Take off the driver assists and play around in corners. Then it won't be as shocking when you practice with your new baby.
