numpad enter is really usefull when playing with numpad, at lleast in levs where you start with alias brake

isnt that numpad 9 a bit hard to press, I prefer + as alovolt

as far as alovolt goes, i installed it as:

left arrow/right arrow - turning
pad 4 - gas
pad 8 - brake
pad + - turn
up arrow - alovolt


it seems really comfortable there.

No, it's easy. You can use your right ringfinger.
I think + is harder to use... maybe cos I don't use my pinky...
...except for that numpad enter.

I would easily mix pressing -> and alo when same finger for both, but of course everyone uses own settings, who remembers across, no customized controls......omg...

some people use alias brake on different place cuz it makes easier to have control in some situations when you don't have to switch fingers.

for some reason they don't understand to use it all the time ;)

I use my ringfinger for both -> and alo, which is numpad0. It isn't a problem really...I don't remember, maybe I have screwed it up some times :) I guess there are better spots to have the button, but now that I'm used to it I won't switch back. And I would totally have to relocate how to place my left hand if I would use it for something else than just turning. I have it so I barely touch the space bar with my ring -and longfinger :) The rest of the hand is down the table edge...
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?

quite good, but don't you agree taht your alo is quite off in distance? what if it was (an imaginary button) just up from <-- and left from the up key? that's just the way my buttons are placed.
replace the "change direction" button by the key right to "L" and you got it

(tip) I discovered after some time how good it feels to just put the keyboard on your thighs and play

Arrows:
Up = Throttle
Down = Brake
Left = Left volt
Right = Right volt
Alovolt = C
Esc = Esc :P
T = Timer
V = Map
Enter = Enter


For music:
Ctrl+Alt PgUp/Down = Next/Prev song
Ctrl+alt Home = Play/pause
Ctrl+alt End = Stop

And sometimes J for instant/forced lag
