I'D like to purchase a driving wheel. Do you recommend the Thrustmaster
F1 or the Mad CAtz model. mad catz costs about $70 US and the
thrustmaster about $125 us.

I have a Thrustmaster T2, and I love my wheel!  Despite some differing
opinions of its durability, mine has held up for over a year now.  This
wheel is much better than the Mad Catz wheel and worth the extra
investment.

If you only plan on spending no more than a hundred bucks than go with
the T2, but if you
wana take it to the extreme, go with the TSW system by Trevor Thomas.
Its around 250 but
well worth it and I think it has a life time guarantee. Its construction
is that of the wheel sets installed in
arcade games like Daytona(very durable).

If you want to go with a professional quality system and you race enough
to warrant the investment, you may wish to consider one of the Extreme
Competition Controls units, starting at $559. This may sound like a lot,
but you get what you pay for... The ECCI driving system has won top honors
for desktop driving controls in every professionally conducted comparison
review to date!
