Could anyone do me a huge favor and give me a rundown of the control layout? It seems I need accel, brake, handbrake, weight transfer all accessible and easily mashed in any combination. I'm curious how the console's default control setup handles it; right now I'm having to move from the standard "thumb on the buttons" to "finger tips" style because I have to press both the left and right buttons, or both top and bottom, etc. Sort of irritating.

Heres what I have right now: (its a ps2 controller -> usb converter, so in reference to the four buttons on the right...)

bottom = accel
left = weight transfer
right = handbrake
top = brake

Quick stops on a motorcycle require left + top. Really quick require left + top + right. Sharp turns require left+right.
All that, and this is the best that I could come up with :-o

Someone with the console version, please help? I'm sure they default to a much more elegant solution than what I'm using right now.

Thanks :D

Thanks a lot! Thats pretty similar to how I have mine set up. (Except nitro is on a shoulder button.)

Hahaha, thats a great bug. I've noticed my bike doing weird things. I "burned out" but let off both the accelerator and the brake and starting accelerating. I braked and tried again, and I'm not sure if I was pressing weight transfer, but I wheelied and went +220mph on the Paris bike. Without any slipstream or nitro. (Usual top speed ~180) And I'm sure I wasn't holding gas. I crashed, then I couldn't do it again :(

I'll have to try out that pause thing. I'll bet it got "ported" over too :)
