Could you build this?

No A credible 500 Hz vehicle simulator with thermal tyre modelling and real-time online racing requires specialized vehicle-dynamics physics and multiplayer netcode expertise that vibe coding cannot supply.

What it would actually take: Building a real version means a physics core in C++ or Rust running a fixed-timestep solver at 500 Hz, compiled to WebAssembly for the browser, with tyre models calibrated against real telemetry. It also needs licensed or accurately measured car and track data, plus authoritative netcode with server-side simulation and lag compensation for the 20-minute open races. That takes experienced sim-racing or game-physics engineers and access to real vehicle data.
