I've got a couple of race sims and would like to try my hand at it.
Can you guys recommend a reasonable setup for me.  I'm using win98
with usb ports.  PIII - 500,  ATI rage 16m card , with 128m memory

Fred, there are so many variables, how much do you want to spend, what sims
do you like, force feedback or not? You're not giving us a lot to work with
here!<g>

Go here for information and a good forum for Force Feedback devices:
http://www.force-1.com/

Here are a couple of sites for non-force wheels...now go spend the weekend
reading and come back Monday with your decision<g>.

I just ordered the Thrustmaster Nascar Pro Digital......looks like I have a
couple of weeks wait.

So while I'm waiting hows about some (non-force) feedback.  Is it going to be
any good?

...considering the 1995 Gravis cheapo joyschtick I have been using in N3.....

which reminds me....sorry for anyone I have taken out in on-line racing due to
this crummy schtick.....
