Title: Layouts for racing games
Layout author: Burcea Radu-Mihai
Description: I've tried the default racing layouts from monect and they're OK but it's not what I really wanted. In racing games I want to be able to finely control the brake, the acceleration, the turning. And since I just couldn't manage to do something useful with the sliders (because they were pretty weirdly configurated) I made an all G-sensor control layout for controlling the car. I only tested this in Need For Speed: Most Wanted (2012) and it works pretty well. I'm about to test it in Grid Autosport as well soon to see if it works as well. It's pretty weird to control it like this at first but you get used to it pretty quickly if you played mobile racing games.

From the files, I recommend using the second layout "racing (sensors) 2" since it has bigger and more accesible buttons. you accelerate by tilting your phone forwards and brake by tilting it backwards and steer by tilting it left and right. There's a joystick for looking around your car and some other buttons for free configuration.

I might also supply the slider version of this layout too. Maybe someone prefers it as weird as it is over the sensor layout.
