I am going to by the new Guillemot/Ferrari force feedback steering wheel
this week. I have got RC2000 - but which Formula 1 racing sim has the best
handling when using a FF-steering wheel???
Hope to hear from you guys!
Best regards

The only possible answer to this question is : Grand Prix Legends, produced

Now you've done it!
You'll get ca 132+ answers stating that Grand Prix Legends (GPL) is the F1
game to buy.
They'll state that no other game comes even close to GPL. They'll say that
if you want *** realistic handling, this is the only game.
Worst of all: They are right. GPL is truly fascinating!

GPL is the best Formula 1 sim (it's based on the '67 season).
If you want current Formula 1, wait for GP3. (it's due out in March, I
believe)
Or a Cart racing sim using the GPL engine, hint hint, Papy.
And make sure you go to www.theuspits.com for all the GPL goodies, espically
the 16 bit***pits.
They've been stung by GPL - yes it's got people who will slit their own
wrists if people so much as mention another game in the same sentace as
GPL - but it's not a great commercial product. It needed a realism
slider...because out of all the people who've sat down in front of my
machine to play GPL...I've gone away for 30 minutes - when I get back,
they're playing TOCA 2.
It's nothing wrong with the people...
It's just that GPL is too difficult for 90%+ of the Population
With this in mind - do you really think they're going to do the same
mistake again???
Come on - they're a company - not a charity.
Someone out there must have the cash / brains etc to work out a way to
crack open GPL totally - or to buy the GPL engine off Papy...then make a
low volume - high price sim using modern CART tracks and cars....
Sure as hell Papy aint gonna do it...

But what I haven't found out is if their enthusiasm is as great after some
hours.

I would pay a-great-lot-of-money for a GPL based CART sim.
I hope you're wrong :)

I agree GPL is too hard, but that doesn't mean that they can't make a good
Cart sim using the GPL engine. With the AI tweaker, any one can win at GPL,
so I ask, what makes you think that just because a sim uses the GPL engine,
it has to be hard? They could make a CART sim with an adjustable AI (like
they should have done with GPL).

Vintook
RS2, A "proper" modern day F1 sim.........
Not alot of ff to boast as modern day cars are a tad smoother than ther 1967
counterparts but when you hit the karbs, that lamp on the end of your desk
goes flying!!
