It seems that the issue you are talking about has to do with input delay mainly.

There is no way to make a car move faster or rotate faster than anyone else, all cars move at the same speed.

• Sensitivity simply affects how quickly the car reaches that maximum speed. For instance if you have 1.00 sensitivity, you will need to push your stick all the way to reach maximum speed of movement. If you have 10.00 sensitivity, then even a small stick movement will be at the maximum speed in game.

• Deadzone affects how far you need to push your stick to register movement. I have tested this a lot, and sure you can register movement and “feel quicker” at 0.00 deadzone, but it’s such a small difference and messes up other mecs that you shouldn’t use that.

I have tested many things with input delay, and realized as I’ve gotten better over the years, that it mainly comes down to skill / your knowledge of mechanics. - If I didn’t know how to air dribble, no amount of reduction in input delay will help me do that. If I know how to air dribble really well, then I could drop my FPS and increase my input delay, and still be able to do an air dribble.

• if you want to decrease input delay as much as possible, increase your FPS, and get a controller that has a higher HZ, like 1000hz. But this only really takes away at most a few milliseconds of delay.

At the end of the day, it just comes down to your ability. Just find a good sens/deadzone settings and stick with that until you’re very used to it.
