Sting32 :

        I have similar feeling about Logitech. I had red Logitech. Excellent
FF, but really crapy pedals. I really had problems with them, sometimes. One
respectible company should knew better. Now I have Thrustmaster, what a
difference. Next time I'll be buying a Logitech wheel I'll think more than
twice. -- Mario

Well, I have three now :)

An old GameCard version I retired about 3 years ago.
My current USB model I've been using for three years.  It is still working
fine except for a slight stickyness that started with the left shifter a
couple of months ago.
The new one I just got for $39 :)

I plan on putting the new one in service, and when I get time I'm going to
tear apart the current one, clean all the dog and cat hair that's
accumulated in it over the last 3 years, hit that sticky shifter with a bit
of TV Tuner Cleaner/Lube, and then put it in the box ready as a stand-by.

I beat the hell out of this thing, and it's held up marvelously.

I have a brand-new Momo in the box I bought when they were just out and cost
$200.  Has about 30 minutes on it.  It's been on the shelf for over a year
now.

Same reason as you.  Wonderful wheel, satanic pedals.

I still aren't sure what I'm going to do with it.

        Yes. Especially when, when we drive Nascar in today's so-realistic
sims, we are actaully doing a lot of turning by playing with pedals (as was
so nicely described in N 2003 'Driving Lessons'). -- Mario

You willing to sell it?  If so, how much?  I could use a spare if the price
were right.

Hmmm.....

What are they selling for new these days ?

Is it worth, oh, $80 + shipping?
