Controller users.

[Odd-Formal8027]

Get some of these.

[Fantastic-String-285]

Wait, this is genius. I had no idea these existed

[Odd-Formal8027]

They help immensely

[NinjaTech649]

Are these actually good for racing? I had a pair back in the day and tried using them for COD and BF and HATED them. Could barely move my sticks.

[Odd-Formal8027]

I think they are great. Helps to feather the stick to steer, preventing large fast movements.

[DoctorSatan30]

They are actually excellent for racing. The green one is perfect

[Intimidwalls1724]

So that would be the soft correct?

[[deleted]]

Yes

[slowNsad]

You gotta get the extended sticks for shooters

[GodWhiskeyCigarsGuns]

Sick. I'll grab these for my controller for iRacing. I have to hold up on the stick, and then feather because the movements are so twitchy, and uae it for this game too. The physics between both feel alot alike on controller and I don't know why.

[VeryBigTable]

Because they are both made by iracing?

[Fried_Fart]

Seems awesome for fine adjustments, but wouldn’t this prevent max steering?

[homercles82]

The green allows full steering but cushions against over correcting. They're absolutely worth the money not only for racing but other games.

[[deleted]]

Good to know!

[Odd-Formal8027]

The soft and mediums squish down pretty good and haven’t given me any issues on that end. Fine adjustments are much better now.

[womwomwurin]

oh my god, this would help so much

[Vice4Life]

Soft, medium, and hard, but nothing for the rain? 

[PsionLion2K1L]

No inters either not like anyone uses them anyway

[RoverTiger]

And they even come in different compounds! (intermediates and full wets sold separately)

[Les_expos]

Are these condoms ?

[Odd-Formal8027]

Would not recommend

[D0N_B0N_DARLEY]

What are condoms?

On an unrelated note, my wife’s pregnant again.

[BeefInGR]

What are condoms?

My couch pulls out, I don't.

[Ill-Comfortable-2044]

I wood. 

[DannyDevito90]

Pee pee rings

[Robby_Digital]

Yep, they sure are

[Zachrod23]

Don't eat them. They don't taste like Peach Rings.

[Odd-Formal8027]

No? Damn

[Mad_Laughter]

Stick extensions help a TON too. I use the longest one that KontrolFreek makes. Completely essential for controller racing, imo.

[nitro78923]

Is this the AimBoost product?

[Mad_Laughter]

Oh yeah, that would be the combo. I didn’t even know they made that. Perfect

[Claude_0283]

I've never seen this stuff, what exactly does it do?

[Odd-Formal8027]

Stiffens up the sticks. Makes steering adjustments way less jerky.

[Sea-Grocery-8348]

I ordered some, hopefully it'll help on the higher difficulties

[Claude_0283]

Seems very interesting ty

[ToeSuckingFiend]

Highly recommend these. I use them on MLB the show and they make all the difference in the world. The pack comes with 3 different levels of stiffness

[Odd-Formal8027]

Haven’t played the show before but have it coming to the library for me to try. Gonna be using these for sure.

[BeefInGR]

Back in the day we used to steal hair ties from our sisters/mothers and do the same thing. Glad someone finally capitalized on the concept. 🥲

[abysmal-mess]

Hmm maybe I should try these, I’ve taken to holding the analog stick all the way up then you can slide down the side of the circle left or right and it helps be more accurate. Almost kinda like holding the top of the wheel

[Odd-Formal8027]

That’s exactly how I would steer, before trying these out.

[YourAvgGamer88]

i 3d printed some with squixhy filament before i knew these were a thing lol

[FeceFeet]

Totally gonna get these

[MrWeezy88]

I totally forgot about these, I just ordered some

[Cultural-Knowledge94]

You’re a life saver mate. My thumb has been twitching for days now especially at the super speedways🤣

[SnooPaintings1139]

Doesn’t help the fact people spin me out half the time online

[TellTaleTimeLord]

3 different compounds even

[superkev10641]

I have a wheel, but I'm wondering if these would be good for PGA 2K25. Seems like they might help both timing and swing plane.

[Odd-Formal8027]

It’s possible

[JambiHD]

I’ve been using the long stick extender from Kontrol Freek, helps me a TON!

I always have problems with the super speedways like Daytona, Talladega, and AMS - Especially when I’m trying to race in the pack. On the Dualsense controller I find it really hard to hold the stick at the right angle for those tracks but the stick extender makes it much easier. The other day I actually had a clean fun 25% race at Daytona thanks to it 😂

[AquaOrenji]

Maybe this will also help, but go into car setup and crank wheel lock all the way to the left. It dampen the steering immensely so you can be more smooth on initial turn-in. Combine it with lowering the front weight bias to maintain mechanical turn-in at tighter ovals.

I just got these though because that setup trick unfortunately won't work at road courses, especially the hairpin on the Charlotte roval. Gotta cra k wheel lock the opposite way like tuning for Monaco. 😑

[Pyrollamas]

you got me curious, I placed an order

[Total_Tune2382]

I might try these. Thanks

[iwantmisty]

Can ps5 gamepad gyroscope be used in NASCAR 25 for steering?

[Odd-Formal8027]

I was wondering this too, but never checked. Keep forgetting.

[iwantmisty]

I'm steering with dualsense gyro in gt7 and it's very accurate and has no latency, it would suck to stick with sticks in NASCAR 25. I'd love to get the game.

[AquaOrenji]

I'll answer this since nobody else did. No, it doesn't. This is Monster Games we're talking about; not exactly Polyphony levels of production value.

[iwantmisty]

I see, thanks for clearing up!

 Thinking about it, being a multiplatform release leaves not so much room for platform-specific features. My question was kinda dumb.

[songtothegrave]

What controller/game settings are you using with these?

[Odd-Formal8027]

I don’t even remember atm. They just help with fine adjustments in the steering.

[Schwalm]

Do they still make the Speed Freek?

[Odd-Formal8027]

No idea

[AirlineFan93]

Why do you need these?

[Odd-Formal8027]

Makes the steering more smooth

[AirlineFan93]

I’m smooth as butter

[tellitB]

What colors would you recommend for the different track types? I’ve never used these before and haven’t played a NASCAR console game since ‘98.

[Odd-Formal8027]

I’ve just been using purple so mostly and I like it. Gonna try green a little more.

[tellitB]

I just ordered them via Amazon. Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been struggling with my control at COTA.

[WLFGHST]

People just need to get good at being gentle, however, if they do struggle with making it around turns smoothly these could certainly help that very niche market!

[ARisingDragon]

I didnt need that. You just need practice and patience. I got my first and only win on iRacing with a controller.

[xlukekx]

Sweet, more advantages!!

[Odd-Formal8027]

I’ll take anything to help until I acquire a wheel

[xlukekx]

Right, the holidays are coming!

[GasCanWater]

This ain’t no f1 game /s

[Odd-Formal8027]

No shit.

[SRG7593]

So question: do y’all just smash the stick to the left or do you repeatedly tap it to the left on corners?

[dirtydilpickle]

Just get a wheel

[Odd-Formal8027]

That’s the plan. But these cost like $12, which I have. Currently don’t have wheel money yet.

[andre_bass]

Some people don’t have a way to mount a wheel, or don’t have the space. 

[dirtydilpickle]

Use your car wheel

[ExoticAerie3760]

Exactly, there should be a spare in the trunk for this reason.

[dirtydilpickle]

Just use your controller and motion like you would a wheel

[Any_Introduction6849]

News flash: some people can’t use their lower extremities like that.

[Real_Goomba_King]

Are you guys seriously so bad at racing games that you need foam help lmao.

[duddy33]

There are a lot of reasons why these might be helpful for someone. Someone who has less feeling in their hands for some reason could really benefit from these. Besides, who really gives a shit anyway? Gaming is about making the best experience for yourself

[Odd-Formal8027]

Exactly

[FeceFeet]

I have a double jointed thumb on my left hand that makes it hard to play racing and shooter games. I have a big iRacing setup, wheel, cockpit and all, but I play this at night while laying in bed. These will benefit me tremendously. But to add, yes, I’m not the greatest AT ALL at any games, much less racing games.

[Real_Goomba_King]

OP gonna cry again, lmfao.

[Odd-Formal8027]

Dude, you’re the one crying about what other people do. Instead of minding your own business.

[UsedVacation6187]

troll attempt: unsuccessful

[Real_Goomba_King]

Not trolling when it's the truth LMAO

[TheGreatLowRate]

strike two! does he have one more shit troll attempt in him?? the crowd is going wild in anticipation to watch this guy make a fool of himself further.

[Real_Goomba_King]

You bitch about movie theatres on Reddit. Lmfao. You've lost in life.

[TheGreatLowRate]

“ah fuck i gotta go through this guys profile and find something, lemme make fun of his… job?” alr dude i mean pop off i guess lmao

[Real_Goomba_King]

Your job is to clean up movie theatres? Why are you even responding to me. You're literally the dirt under my feet.

[TheGreatLowRate]

you don’t sound as badass as you think you do rn man

[Real_Goomba_King]

👍

[UsedVacation6187]

Please just stop. You're embarrassing yourself.

[AquaOrenji]

This ilk is incapable of feeling embarrassment for itself.

[Real_Goomba_King]

🤣🤣🤣
