Has anyone heard of a steering wheel by a company called Destiny?  I've
searched the web but found nothing so far.  It's available in the UK for
the same price as the Thrustmaster GP, and it has separate pedals, which
seems better to me.  Any comments on either of these wheels?   I'm also
interested in the MCS Multi-system controller - anyone used one?

I've noticed a third "pedal-hole" on my T2, to the left of the breaking
pedal. Could a clutch be fitted into this, without too much hassle, and
will there be any games supporting it?
I've read that Papy's Grand Prix Legends will have some kind of clutch
support...

GP2 has a spot in the advanced controls menu for a clutch, though I've
never heard of anyone using it.

A friend of mine built a clutch on his home-built wheel, but it's not of
much use. The only sim supporting it right now is GP2 and it only comes
handy during the start: he flies away at the green lights. But during the
race you don't use it.

Yeah, they are both cheap plastic shit.

Save up and buy a *proper* wheel and pedal combo, you will appreciate it
in the long run. If you really cannot afford to wait to save up, or just
cannot afford a real wheel and pedal set, then get a T2, its the best
compromise between performance and cost you will find.

I started out with a T2, but now have an F1 Sim (formerly GP500).

explained what i've done (modification), and i've asked them
to consider this as future plan for there GT wheel as either
EASY ADD-ON or already hooked-up, and they reply that
they would consider this in a serious way.

Eric Cote,

You are not alone. My home-built pedals were designed right
from the start with a clutch pedal. It is also wired as
Joystick port B and can be switched to run as a On\Off or
analog. I use it in Nascar 2 because the gear lever is wired
via a micro switch on the cltuch pedal. I must press/jab the
clutch or the gears won't change.
