Default From sticks to wheel...

Anyone made the change from sticks to wheel? How did you find it?

I forgot my transmitter last night , fortunately someone had a spare wheel transmitter going (thanks again Chris), so I used that.

Total nightmare!

First of all I was zigzagging down the straight because I had no feel for the steering. Then I was throttling on instead of braking because I couldn't get used to the trigger.

Had a spell of about 3 minutes in the second round where I was lapping OK, then I crashed and lost my rhythm... turns out I lost my rhythm for the rest of the night because I didn't turn another decent lap! It's a miracle I didn't break the car or injure a marshal.

I know Craig Drescher switched to a wheel - I just can't understand how you can do that after so many years experience with the sticks.
