The first TOCA race driver was setup to be played with a joypad, it felt pretty good with the keyboard but you never have the finese that way so I tried with the wheel and it was awful, no feedback and totaly arcade sliding model. Much worse than the original series and far less fun than CM series. Having said that I have not played the latest demo so they may have tweaked the driving model. However, Codemasters are known to use the same engine for the series and it would require a fairly fundamental change to get the 'feel' right.
From the review on gamespot:
Above all else, racing in TOCA 3 just feels authentic. Sometimes cars might feel a bit floatier than they would seem like they ought to in a realistic scenario, and there are times where your car will magically survive wicked looking crashes with little more than cosmetic damage,
Most of you will notice that it does NOT sound authentic AT ALL.
Play the GT Legends demo instead!

Ignore the 8.5, if you enjoy going sideways then it should get a 9.9 (nothing gets 10, that belongs to Grand Prix Legends)
