I wouldn't accept them myself.
You can go faster by tapping yourself it seems and it's a lot harder at first to tap and drive so it takes extra concentration and it's a lot better to me.

I've learned to tap fast with my thumb. Otherwise, it's much too uncontrolled.

Do you know how fast 30 times per second is? That's 1,800 bpm. That is really fast. No turbo controller goes that fast, at least that I'm aware of. Personally, I don't care either way. I don't play the game anymore anyway, and the only time I had that was even near a WR was Spacedust Alley cart (I haven't submitted it, that's why it doesn't show up. Most of my records on the site are outdated). Of course, I never learned to powerslide, so I never tried to do it.

i dont think we should allow them. whether they are easier or not, for some, it requires going out and spending money just to get "optimal equipment" as simon calls it. and you can get WR times without them ( or at least the potential to ) i know this from my own experience. but yeah, no turbos please, it would prolly just complicate the rankings even more than they will be.

me 2, if its possible to go faster without them, then why not allow them, i broke the rubber grip on mine and taped it on, lol, and off topic here, but i just got 1'07'06 on Crescent Island cart  Splits were 22'90 (i somehow jump the last bank of the course, looked like a glitch to me) 22'15, 22'01 (best lap for me) |

Hi . I just tried this game for the first time today , and i suck  Im playing with tipsy at the moment and only the first track . Got 17 :3x for flap and 54 something for 3lap. Anyways , I tried my turbo controller AND tapping at the same time. That seemed to work okay , but my turbo controller is sorta f**ked , and I dont know if it even works anymore . But say it did work , would that be the way to go? BTW , who should i drive with ? |

I say don't allow turbo controllers. Not everybody owns one like me. Can't we just stick without them.  |
