Hopefully I should be getting my MS Precision Racing wheel this week.
Hopefully I should be able to get my GPL Rank handicap down. It is becoming
really diffucult to improve using a joystick and from brief experiance on
other machines a wheel will be easier.

I suppose no one really wanted to know this did they?

Don't be puzzled, but you'll need some time to get used to a wheel and to catch
up to your existing PB's.

Hi.Now that GP3 is just round the corner (I live on the darkside of
the moon,more precisely:Norway),I am contemplating buying a FF wheel.Can
anyone recommend one?I would like a wheel which one can change the pots
without a degree in engineering,and of solid build.Probably does not
exist,but you never know before asking...;)
Thanks in advance.

BTW:I for one would be happy with GP3 being GP2 with better AI,and
rain.Better GFX I take as a bonus.I hear that it has a better
driving-model,and-without intending to start a war-believe that driving
98model F1 car is very much unlike driving a 67 F1 car.Looking at the
current F1 cars,they are able to change directions very rapid as you can
in GP2 unlike GPL.I for one did not like GPL.That is not to say it is
bad,but not my cup of tea.I *feel* I can compete much closer without
loosing control in GP2 than in GPL racing my friends.But enough said
about GP2.I eegerly await GP3 with my crappy current wheel:)

Hmm, I have seen a lot of complaints about FF not working on wheels in
GP3. Not only my MSFF, but also the R4 or something.
So don't let GP3 hunt you down that wheel too much. You'll be
disappointed.

The MSFF and the Saitek R4 are twins with different shells
and company stickers, so where one fails, the other will too.

Damn, I hope they come up with a fix real soon.
