With my Nascar Pro, I seem to get MORE brake power with combined axis than
with separate.

Here is a vote for the LWFF, although I do use the CH pedals rewired to the
wheel. I've had the wheel for a year and it is still as good as new with no
squeeks or rattles.

LWFF is my vote. I made my own custom wheel that I think is about as good as the ECCI ,but
after trying force feedback in GPL  I would rather use the LWFF.  Oh, and yes I will be
modifying the wheel and pedals, but for the money ($122.00 at NCBUY.com) the LWFF is a
good deal for FF the way it comes.

Jerry,

The A1 has recently moved its production from Melbourne to Sydney (a
distance of about 1000 miles !!!)  In Sydney, we have just completed setting
up the production facility and are just now getting the first new Advantage
1s off the line.

There has been interest in the A1 from the US as well as Europe and we hope
to get some wheels over there to you guys !!! We need to source a reliable
distributor though. We hope this will happen shortly !!!!

>ECCI CDS4000 Monza F1 :-)  Ok.. so its 3 times your limit.. but what the
>heck.. its still the best <G>

Bullcrap, that wheel is junk.  You wouldn't know because you've never tried a
good wheel.  The only wheel worth owning is the ECCI CDS4000 Daytona.  :-)

  Thats because your brake is negating the gas when you have combined
axis.  So not only are you engaging the brakes your immeadiatley lifting
the throttle.
  With separate axis, you can maintain some throttle or trail brake with
both the throttle and brake.

LWFF and CH pedals. I haven't tried all the available wheels and
pedals on the market, but I love this combo, can't imagine a greater
wheel and pedals.
