Alison,
I tried this with GP2, but cod not get it too work. The program errors with
not enough range to calibrate. Works fine with ICR2, but I much prefer to
drive GP2. Although I'm becoming very adapt at using my ring and pinkie
fingers for brake and throttle, the peddles would complete what I think would
be the ultimate reasonably-priced control combo.

<P>>Howdy; I have a question about the TM Grand Prix wheel. I am considering
<BR>>purchasing one, but I already own a set of CH Pedals, which I like
very
<BR>>much. Is it possible to disable the spring loaded flaps on this wheel
<BR>>assembly and use my pedals with the wheel? Any info would be greatly
<BR>>appreciated. Much thanx...
<P>I have done exactly what you want to do and it works fine. The
paddles
<BR>(flaps) are on Joystick 1's Y axis, while the pedals are Joystick 2's
X
<BR>and Y axis. Simply set up the sim to use the latter for accelerator
and
<BR>brake.
<P>As a nice side effect, you can tell the sim to use the paddles for
<BR>shifting: Joystick 1, Y axis, Up, for downshift, and Joystick 1, Y
axis,
<BR>Down, for upshift. This will make the car upshift when you flick
the
<BR>right paddle, and downshift when you flick the left one. This
works
<BR>great in ICR2. I think it will work in GP2 as well, and if it
does it
<BR>would be very realistic.
