Ok, so I was lookin around on the net trying to find out what is the best
racing wheel combo to get...  and well, I can't remember half the names of
some of the good ones...I know there used to be a guy that started up his
own buisness doin this stuff, used to have links on the pits and other
sites, guessing he ceases to do this anymore?!  ha

Anyways, this is the best that I've run across...
http://www.racesimcentral.net/# (that's the pedals, there's also
a wheel and shifter and all)  what do you all think is the best to use??

Thanks,
-Tom

   Act Labs is ceasing hardware production.  No more wheels or shifters.

I think the other wheel you were thinking of was the THomas Super Wheel.  
TSW.   They are quite a-bit more pricey than the actlabs.  around 500 US
dollars.  There are several other high priced wheels by BRD, and ECCI.

good luck

part is im only 22, ha, Im screwed eh?  lol

Well Act Labs has stopped production on their wheels, pedals, and shifters
so might not be the bets choice for support.

Hi Tom

You might like to take a look at the Redline Race Controls pedals. Link
below.
I am the maker of them and will be happy to answer any questions.
However I have just run out of stock this week and will back in the workshop
to start a new batch.

Also a spare-time project?
Due to job and house move I haven't been able to get a new batch of my BB-kits
ready for few months now :-(

BTW: The ol'red LWFF plus ball bearing kit is a nice choice too :-)
