Racing games - control

I can't see that working, you will have to keep sliding to keep the vehicle turning which makes long turns really hard, I have a couple of tracks in mind where I'm predicting fail. You could maybe have a middle point to return to but it might be hard to return to so It still looks tricky.

Cool idea but I'm seeing bugs in gameplay. Plus you will need left and right for accelerate and brake since the scroll wheel can't be held in place or you have the return to zero issue again in rolling the wheel.

Oh ok didnt think of those things but remember using the mouse for flying games so thought it would work for car games too

If one doesnt have a control is it possible to setup a mouse to use for turning and scroll wheel for accelerate or brake and I presume right click/left click for changing gears would be actually cool?

this would actually be ideal for steering, going to look into it. In the Arma games you drive vehicles using the mouse and it feels great.
