Does anyone use a T2 Wheel/pedals through an automatic joystick switching box?
If so which switch do you use? I have been using one, but it makes my
brake/gas pedals drift during Nascar2. Anyone else seen this problem or is it
just my joystick switcher?

I'll have to let you know; I just bought one
of those "Twinswitches" from CompUSA. I
haven't connected it yet. The only other
device I've seen is the Joyswitch (info at
www.joyswitch.com ), but it's $60 compared to
$15 for the Twinswitch. I've also considered
converting a data switchbox (for printers)
over to serve this purpose. Anyway, I'd be
interested in hearing from others on this
subject myself.

I tried the Twinswitch finally (sorry it took
so long to reply, I just got my copy of NFS
3), and I don't have any drift. Just a very
slight jumpiness in the Y-axis. I can't get
my T2 to work simultaneously with a gamepad
though. I guess I wasted my money on that
one.

I've got a Joyswitch and it's good to use, I can have my wheel connected
also gamepad and joystick and just switch to what I want to use, no more
mucking around unpluging things from the gameport :-).

You will still need to select the controller your going to use through
windows game controllers though, but you don't have to keep recalibrating
windows remembers the settings.
