Rfactor has it. It is a racing sim for the PC.

The VIR track for rFactor is not great. Unfortunately, I haven't seen a good example of the track on any system or game.

I've found that the VIR track for GTR2 is pretty close. VIR (and most other tracks for all PC sims) can be found at www.nogripracing.com.

gtr2 is the best sim for VIR...i got the game for the simple fact of trying to get use to VIR before i go up there in March. i know the sim is nothing like the real thing, but i guess it cant hurt

It will help you learn the turns at least. I have learned a couple tracks from sims before driving them. The two main things sims don't translate very well is the elevation change and of course the g force.
