Ohhhhhh. I had the completely wrong idea about how that worked, haha. I think this was just based on how the towers seemed to end up at slightly random distances from the track edge.
Controller, but I don't remember even attempting to control the camera, haha. Perhaps that's my issue. From memory, I think I just felt like the camera angle was maybe slightly low, and that the "camera smoothing" or whatever was a bit overdone. That is, the camera lagged behind too far in tight turns.
