They've improved the mounting which was one of the big problems with
the T1 (they now have a couple of clamps which secure the steering unit
to a desk or table in addition to the suction cups). The wheel is now
***ised (sp?) so it's pretty easy to hang on to. The only thing I
wished they had done was to mount fire buttons somewhere on the wheel
so that you could change gears without removing your hands from the
steering wheel. There is a picture as well as some marketing info at
http://www.racesimcentral.net/.
They've also replaced the rollers on the brake/accelerate unit with
pedals. These are a little bit *** bare feet but this is a
pretty minor inconvenience.
Given you're in Ontario, the best place to buy one is probably A-Plus
software. I picked one up last night for $180 CAD (+ Jean & Mike's cut).
This was some sort of special and they only had 5 units in stock. My
little brother was a little jealous since this was the same price he
paid for his T1.
Hope this helps - Roland.
