GPL + Logitech FF wheel - it's a whole new game

I couldn't stop playing it for two weeks (ie I didn't play homeworld,
quake etc etc).

Fantastic!

Thanx to Papyrus for having such excellent force feedback.

I actually managed to get a championship point (got 6th) at silverstone
- incredible (for me :-)

I tried out SCGT/N3/the bundled games (motorhead and f1rs) and they all
couldn't touch GPL for FF.

However NFS3 FF was lots of fun (a major surprise).

Essential references for me were:

followed by:

GPL FF is what I have always wanted out of motorracing games.

However: you don't always get vibrations where I would expect (as per a
previous post from someone else) but you can get great feel for the
balance of the car.
