Settings allow user to set up keyboard, mouse or joypad controls in order to simulate the steering control while a PC steering wheel is not available. These settings include:
* Sensitivity (time reaction from keypress)
* Speed sensitivity (steering inertia depending on vehicle speed)
* Lock (max steering angle at certain degrees)
