I've not raced in a long time, basically since I went to WinXP and had
to "upgrade" my ForceRS to the USB version.  For those that don't
remember, the USB version of the wheel has terrible resolution, which
made precision driving, well, impossible.  Other things came up, too,
and sim racing had to take the back seat.

Now I have the bug again, reading about the various mods that are out
for NR2003.
So, was wondering, what is the wheel du jour?  I'd like to keep my
ActLabs usb pedals in the mix, if possible.

I had FF before, but am not totally hung up on it this time.  I'd like
to stay under $100.

Thanks,
Gerald

ps: the other thing I was thinking about (and I know this is heresy
around here) was picking up a PS2 and GT4 to play in the den.  Can the
PS2 wheels be used on PC?

I have the original USB engine that has the high resolution - are you
possibly interested in selling your kit (provided it has the shifter)?
It'll make that DFP a little easier to get ;).

Email me at eventerke 'at' earthlink 'dot' net.

If I was not going to add a PS2, would the Momo be a better choice?
Anyone tried both?
