Do u guys play Racing games/Flight Action on ur Gaming rig?

hey guys, i play a lot of pc games, mostly FPS/RPG/RTS, also some action adventure games as well but here comes the question, i love NFS series even thou most ppl dont like em and arcade racing like Blur,also Flight Action games like HAWX, i happen to have a PS3 as well, so should i keep the racing genre on my PC or should i play em on console? ill be mostly playing these games online so i wanna know from ppl who play NFS/Blur/Grid , Hawx/Blazing Angeles type of games how is the online community? are they active or dead? also i have a wireless 360 controller for my gaming rig as well.

btw my rig spec:

Core i7 920 @ 3.21

EVGA GTX 295 Co-Op Edition

6GB Domminator DDR3 @1600

300gb Velocirapto, 1TB Caviar Black

EVGA x58 Classified MB

Sure. I've been playing flight/combat sims since the 80's and racing games since the early 90's. Joysticks and driving wheels/pedals have always been standard equipment for those games.
