beginning of this article with Microsoft Motocross Madness or Microsoft
Motocross Madness 2.

MORE INFORMATION
================

When you use one of the SideWinder wheels listed at the beginning of this
article in Motocross Madness or Motocross Madness 2, the following control
assignments are assigned by default:

- Lean Forward: Accelerator pedal.
- Lean Backward: Brake pedal.
- Accelerate: Button 1

The Accelerate and Brake controls in Motocross Madness and Motocross Madness 2
can only be assigned to buttons on the game controller. You may want to assign

controller, such as the pedals included with the SideWinder wheels listed at the
beginning of this article.

Motocross Madness and Motocross Madness 2 support the force feedback features of
the SideWinder Force Feedback wheels listed at the beginning of this article.
