This topic is about if you use the wheel or a gamecube controller.
I myself, prefer the gamecube controller because it's much easier.
There are pros and cons to it.
With the wheel u got to move around and shit.
With the controller u just drive smooth. lol
So what do u guys prefer?

I used to use the wheel all the time, but t'was pissing me off that half the time I'd go flying off the track whenever I attempt a trick, all because of bad timing. Switched to the GC recently, and I'm doing much better now that I can trick with more ease. :P Same for doing wheelies easier.

The wheel is more fun in my opinion, and I was pretty decent with it. Just takes a little getting used to.

Nunchuk and remote, probably because they're closer to a traditional joystick. I always overdo the steering with the wheel.

The gamecube controller is old and boring so I use the wheel. Turning, wheelies, and tricks are more fun and realistic w/ the wheel. Plus getting 9999 vr w/ the wheel is a pretty fun challenge to complete. Currently I have 9300 vr.

I use the wheel 100% of the time; however, I've never had to release my bowels to make it work. That could make for quite a messy game. Maybe you're concentrating too hard.

Only use the Wii Wheel, Every time I try to use anything else I lack control. Mostly due to the fact that I have been using the wheel for over a year.
