I had the Nordschleife in my bucket list like 20 years. I had zero track experienced, but I am a petrolhead. Then 5 years ago I bought not only E92 M3, but also Playstation, PlaySeat + Thrustmaster steering wheel and Gran Turismo game. I also hired a personal coach. So, I started training in parallel, on the real car on the real track, to achieve basic track skills -- and to learn all 72 turns on the NS.
I would say that it was a great help also from Playstation training. Of cause you are very scared during the first lap, but then you will pick up pace...
