Are you a leaner?
When I am playing my racing sims I find myself doing some massive leaning from side to side to mimic the behavior of the car on screen...not mimic body roll but mimic the yaw angle of the car..
Anyone else do the same?9-23-2006 Cadey-Lee Deacon,The Rocket Pub, New Parks, Leicester: Little one, through some miracle of reincarnation may you be given a second chance at a full life. You\'ll not soon leave our thoughts and prayers ;(

Yup, been noticing myself doing this while playing F1 with the steering wheel. I don't think that I do it with the controller unless I'm really trying....although my tongue will usually be poking out
You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

Yup, big time. I was racing at an oval (Milwaukee Mile) and was almost falling out of my chair because I was leaning over so far.
I guess I was trying to "influence" the car harder into the turn. I'm usually pretty still n road courses. It's the short ovals that get me leaning.Chrome Horn Racing

I do small facial expressions and a little bit of leaning. But, especially when racing online, I try to keep my composure and relax. I don't know why I bother though, because I seem to race better when I'm full of adrenaline and going hell for leather

A lean a little but I tend to shout at the car more than anything.

When I go to WRC event, I want to see the best drivers as always. If I want to see some national drivers, I can go to some other less popular event.. Just simple.
