You still need to understand the calls and make the appropriate adjustments but you arent fighting the car as often and you can be a bit more ham-fisted with maneuvers. You can dial in aids to assist you but they dont totally neuter the game. For whatever reason, I decided to give it another go but on a controller and holy hell, everything is clicking (more on that later). The cars just seemed too difficult to drive and my wheel set up is trash. I dumped this game a while back because I just couldnt get along with it.
