optional 360° gamepad/thumbstick steering

to clarify, an experimental feature, where pushing the left thumbstick forwards causes no steering of the wheel in the game. Just as it is now. 

Then rotating left or right around the edges of the thumbstick reaches 90 degree left and 90 degree right.

Suggestion is to allow the game to recognize anti clockwise, left steering, and clockwise, right steering, to 180 degrees, each, which allows the player to use a total of 360 degrees of rotation.

If a deadzone at the bottom of the thumbstick is necessery, this can still be 350 degrees of rotational accuracy in gamepad steering. Which is 200% accuracy.

This would revolutionise gamepad racing. Allowing gamepad users to come closer, performance wise, to wheel and pedal users. But performance aside. It is simply more fun. More control of the car means more enjoyment.

Giving players double the steering accuracy capacity is simply awesome. 

With the triggers/pedals already having trigger vibrational feedback for traction limit, as it is now, I find my pedal accuracy sufficient to addapt to circumstancial needs of the game, already as it is. 

But giving double steering accuracy would really feel enlightening also in terms of joy and ease. And a bigger feeling of emmersion and more intuitive and more natural feeling.

I know this would require allot of testing and development time, but I believe it might be worth a try. As an improved edition to the game that is already immensly great as it is. Even with 90 degrees left or right, the game already feels immensly well developed and fine tuned to perfectio. I can only imagine how amazing full 360 or 350 degree of steering capacity on a gamepad thumbstick would feel. It would open up a whole new extra big window for player control.
