What control style are you using? Also how's the motion sensing? I heard the wii wheel is pretty bad.

I tried the Wii Wheel but I didn't like it. I'm using Wiimote plus Nunchuk.

I'm using the wheel and find it easy to use. I find it to be a little off if you are playing split screen multiplayer though.

2 more weeks until release here. I plan on using the wheel unless it's crap. Then Classic Controller all the way.

The WiiWheel is actually pretty good.

It took a little while to get into it yesterday but its just different to what im used to for driving games. The beauty of the game is that it isnt restricting you to one control method - you have wheel method, nunchuck method, classic controller and GC controller which means use your preffered!

I prefer either the classic controller or the wiimote and nunchuck. The wiimote and nunchuck are easy because tricks are easy, but the c button makes you look behind you and you need that finger to hold items behind your kart. Classic controller makes it easier to look behind, but trick are harder.

Come on guys! The Wiieel is great (yes I made a cool new name for it) after you've had practice with it it's really fun.

Yea, definitely. The wheel is easily good enough to beat people using the nun chuck. But you're right - only for the hard core.

Definately give the wheel a chance.

I've used the Wheel and Gamecube controller so far. Gamecube controller is okay, but the Wheel is definately more fun.

I usually spell it 'Wiil'. The Wiil is fun as well and I actually prefer it over the cube controller but I still play with nunchuck.

Wheel definatley. I havn't tried Wiimote and Nunchuck and I don't intend to. The wheel has been very responsive so far. I didn't realise it would be as sensitive as it is.

Aye, I though Wiil too ... but I decided to make it Wiieel as it balances out both words a bit more hehe.
