Slot Car Racing Idea

My uncle runs a slot car racing store. He got a request from one of his customers for a slot car racing computer game. Since customers can't go to the race track at the moment, it would be nice to be able to hook up their controller to the computer and practice on the computer a little. I don't know what interfaces are available to connect the controller to the computer. I know my uncle runs some old dos machines to control the tracks. I haven't looked to see if there are any commercial programs to do this.

This seems related, but it doesn't look like it ever got released:

There is also a commercial Android game for kids made in 2014 or so.

Edit: there is also a commercial Windows/Apple game on steam called "HTR+ Slot Car Simulation" and another one called "Virtual SlotCars". Would have never thought this is so popular. I just remember it as a quite boring kid's toy.
