Steering Wheel Shell

Ubisoft revealed a steering wheel shell for the Wii Remote, as an accessory bundled with the game. The peripheral steering wheel, created by Thrustmaster, is controlled by tilting the wheel forward to use your nitros and backwards to brake/slow down. Also, when on a ramp, if you thrust the shell forward or in any other direction, you will perform a stunt from the ramp. Other games may make use of this peripheral as well when using the same controls.
