rec.autos.simulators

Lucky me, i've got some spare money, IC2 and F1GP2 are due soon, and my pc#
wants a good steering wheel!

I currently use thrustmaster joy annd throttle sticks so I was thinking of
buying a T1, but have heard about some others recently....

could someone give me the prices and suppliers of;

        Extreme Driving system, and
        ProDrive whatever it is!

I've only heard about the Prodrive in a post on this newsgroup but the poster
thought it was the bollocks, so i'd like to find out how much it costs, and
why it's so good.

thanks in advance

August 1995 Computer *** World

"Being an admitted PC racing ***, I'm always searching for
the best wheeled devices, and have played with quite a few.  So
it stands to reason that my forays into the world of  "The Big
Three" (NASCAR, Indycar Racing and World Circuit) are performed
with steering wheel and pedals, right?
Wrong.
Until last week, the steering devices I've tried have been
shelved time and time again.  I say this not as an affront to
their manufacturers, but simply because nothing I have tried has
matched the simple precision of the CH Flightstick.  But my
driving environment recently experienced a radical, almost
revolutionary, alteration.
Extreme Competition Controls had just delivered their
Competition Driving System, and after quickly freeing the CDS
from its cardboard constraints, the unit was ready for some
serious testing.  So was I"........"And when the dust settled
and the smoke cleared, my new***pit had set records, carved
the uncarveable corner, and opened my eyes to a new level of
realism.  Without a doubt, Extreme's pedal and wheel combo is
the best driving system I have ever tried.
My Flightstick has been sulking in the corner ever since."

October 1995 Strategy Plus:
"The Competition Driving System is the product, and it does for
the computer driver what graphite rackets did for tennis players
- namely, make them a whole lot better.
Thats quite a claim, yet in testing, the CDS consistently
terminated the competition in all three of the genres top
simulations (NASCAR Racing, World Circuit, and Indycar Racing),
and it did better than any wheel, yoke, or joystick thats ever
come across this desk"....."the unwavering steady drive and
response of the CDS simply has no current peer."
