I ordered it from sendit.com and it arrived today - wow great game.  I
pre-otrdered it and it arrived via posted to NC in the USA today.  Bargain
as well only $35.00 USA

Quick question re controller config.

What do you assign your Handbrake too?

I have a MOMO Force wheel (the leather - black and red one - with 6
buttons).

Thanks

The buttons you refer to are actually buttons 3 through 8 (the paddles count
too and are lowest numbered). I've got it on button 6, but I agree it's not
an ideal situation. Might be better if we could have it on two buttons (like
5 and 6) and use either depending on which way the corner goes...

You can map one button to copy another, I have the middle right button
on my momo mapped to the left paddle so I can drive one-handed if I'm
taking a drink or using the keyboard.

I don't have the momo wheel, but I have a thurstmaster wheel with both
paddles and a shifter as well. I assigned shifting to the paddles (as I see
a lot of WRC cars are using paddle shifting anyways) and I assigned the
handbrake to pulling back on the shifter! Works quite awesome!! The great
thing is, while you are handbraking, you can shift down through the gears at
the same time..

Brilliant idea!  After reading this, I decided to use the paddles on my Momo
for shifting and use the shifter as a handbrake.  Feels great. :)

I've assigned it to the button underneath the downshift button (second
from top at left side of wheel).
