taking a survey , what type of control setup are you using?
i'm using a flightstick pro to steer with trigger throttle and thumb
brake with keyboard arrows for shifting ( same on nascar ).
also i think icr2 is great,more realistic driving, good ai etc.
it is odd how the tracks braking points and the distance from corner
to corner and other nuances seemed to have changed,but hey, i like it.
please post any hot tips

I use a CH VPP and Pro Pedals with upshift on the outside right yoke button
and downshift on the outside left yoke button. When I was using the CH Pro
joystick, I preferred to have throttle on the forward y-axis and brake on
the rear y-axis, with upshift was on the trigger and downshift on the
thumb. This gives you finer control over throttle and brake than using the
keyboard or a button.

Extreme Competition Controls' "Competition Driving System": wheel and
pedals. Outermost buttons on either side of the wheel (where your
thumb rests) for shifting and one of the inner buttons for reversing.

The dogs chocolates!

Haven't found any use for the remaining inner button yet though.
Programming it for one of the views in ICR2 (tire temp, standings)
would be neat, or a pit lane speed limiter/auto-braking toggle
perhaps.
