Haven't tried upgrading the pots and don't know much technically about the
wheel, but I've been using one for around six weeks now and so far, so good.
It retails for around 99UKP and at that money, it's not going to feel as
good as an F1 SIM or TSW but I've actually been quite impressed. The wheel
has quite a nice feeling in the hand and the resistence of wheel and pedals
can be adjusted. The paddles don't feel that nice but I've been using the
sequential stick with GPL with no problems.
Installation was a breeze, too - I still haven't had a game reject it.
