Wheel or controller

[schwantzz]

Hi all,

I am really enjoying GT5P and have started racing online for the first time ever - boy what an experience that is!

When I started racing I used the sixaxis. I then tried my DFP wheel but am really struggling with it. I like the accuracy of the wheel and the progressive throttle and brake but I am still slower. With the controller I tend to take sharper turns full lock and direction is controlled on the throttle. With the wheel I seem to have less squeel more accuracy but it's slower!

My other main problem is onlline there's a lot of bumping - some of it even accidentall!!! With the sixasis if I get sideswiped I can flick it onto full lock and regain controll instantly. With the wheel however it nearly always leads to a spin

I spent a lot of time building my wheel stand - see it here -

but I am seriously close to putting the wheel and stand on Ebay.

What do you fast guys use - wheel or controller? What am I doing wrong?

Regards,
Steve - aka schwantzz

Welcome to GTP.

Pictures of your cockpit should go into the steering wheels forum.

We already have a thread here about whether folk use a wheel or controller, so this one will be locked.
