That's Kyalamy, right?
Stefan, what's the idea behind this 90 degree stuff? Can you explain the manner in this madness?

Yes, it's Kyalami
I decide to make this 90° joystick madness because you can change very fast from acceleration to breaking from the wrist. Otherwise you must move the entire arm.

That's interesting you converted the joystick so that it quick shifts. Very clever. I don't have the game but that was nice to see.

I just wish I could make a game use a brakepedal just for the rear brake, like I got used to in MotoGp. I even could beat some very good times in GP Legend, I think. While with the normal steering... :

This is my lap using an analogue gamepad (very similar to PS2 pad).
The left analogue is steering, the right is accelerate. I don't like to brake by pushing back on a stick so I use the right shoulder button for this. Sadly its not analogue.
I also use this configuration for rFactor but in F1 its impossible. I bought a G25 and now I'm worse!!
