 OMG youd think after 3 years id be able to make this decision really easily.....well i cant....i guess im just stuck in my ways but i actually use the D-Pad to race with and ive discovered lately that a few of the faster racers actually used to use the D-Pad...so i thought you know what its time for a change so im TRYING to use the stick....i have to admit that i am finding it very difficult.....my rank this morning was 167 and after 2 sets i had a disappointing 398......i tried thats all i can say....i noticed that my speeds were faster by 20mph at least so i know now that i do have to learn to use the stick.....does anyone else have views on this cos id be really interested to know which you prefer....and if you changed from pad to stick did you find it more beneficial.....?...

The ladies are supposed to like da stick? But then I like the Stick and I be a man.

It's like First Person View and 3rd Person View.

Do what needs to be done to win, without cheating of course.

I am a Stick'man, multiview, boost jumping racer.

Patience is something I taught myself, so I never know when it's going to run out?

i tried using the stick today again today and i do like it but i have to say i prefer my D-Pad..... you said ''do what you have to do to win'' and it made me realize i mean im not a bad racer im quite consistent at times and i very seldomly crash....i can boost jump i can boost drift damn i can even harrier.....but when i use the stick i cant?.....so im sticking with my D-Pad sorry but i am its suited me well over the last 3 years so why change now?.... i have tried so it makes me feel better knowing that ive tried it and i dont like it......but somebody mentioned in another forum about other racing games and i manage fine on them with the stick.....so yeah i like my STICK.......just not on burnout.....
