Waiting for my TSW2....

Waiting for my TSW2....

    Well, it's been two weeks since I ordered a TSW2.   I was given an ETA
of around mid-June.   I'll probably continue to get by with my Nascar Pro
but this wait is gonna be difficult.   I've got 6 spare pedal springs from
Thrustmaster that I hope will last me till June.

     What are the other TSW ETA dates that people are waiting for?  Just
curious.

No way! Three months wait for a TSW... ouch. You could have had a ECCI in
like 2 weeks(or maybe less).

I ordered mine late December and received my TSW2 early February.  Trust me,
its worth the wait for the cost.

I think the NROS has swamped them.  Hang in there with your Nascar Pro.

I spoke with Trevor Thomas of Thomas Enterprises recently, and he says
that they ARE really swamped -- the wait isn't B.S., trust me.  Also,
the wait will DEFINITELY be worth your while.  I have had my TSW2 for
over a year now (after waiting about 4 months to get it), and I
absolutely LOVE it -- I've been having fun with Force Feedback wheels
from time to time, but they just can't measure up to the TSW2.

FWIW, I recently upgraded my stock TSW2 wheel to a VERY nice Caliba
Kadet kart wheel -- I tipped Trev off on this wheel, and they're now
offering it as an alternative to the upgrade "D-shaped" wheel.  Mine's
got a red anodized aluminum center with a black suede grip and gray
leather inserts at the 12:00 and 6:00 positions.  It's got nice thumb
indents, and it feels WONDERFUL.  Check out the picture on the TSW Web
site -- if you have a TSW2 and would like details on how to upgrade
your own, LMK and I'll fill you in on how I did my upgrade.

How about ECCI quality at the TSW price, in less than 4 weeks!

I sit in an office chair with no problem at all.  Also the pedals are fully
adjustable as far as the amount of throw and where they top and bottom out.

When the word gets out, it won't even be a choice between the TSW and the
SRC......Pierod<G>

>Thanks for letting us know that it is a good wheel !!

(I posted this as a separate message when I meant to post it here --
sorry for the double-post.)

This should be of interest to all you TSW owners out there -- I've
upgraded my basic TSW2 to include a VERY nice wheel for about $75.
That's a bit pricey, I know, but it's a nice suede-and-leather wrapped
IRL, CART, or F1 type wheel that's MUCH nicer than the basic wheel
that came with my TSW2. For pictures and details, check out the
