Hey,
so I noticed that whenever you bind car controls to buttons that would usually be used for operating the menus you get insanely bad fps and frame times pressing those buttons in game.
For example on keyboard:
Bound gas, brake, and steering to wasd - no problem. Bound those actions to the arrow keys - fps drops from stable 144 to 60 and frame times are shooting up.
Same with a Xbox Controller:
Bound gas and brake to A and X button and steering to left thumb stick results in fps drop to 60 with really bad frame times when using thumb stick for steering and or pressing gas or brake button.

Mind you the performance only goes down when pressing the buttons, not just by binding them.
I hope the game will be updated asap because the game is really fun and not being able to use my usual key bindings sucks.
