        Hi everybody.
        I`m thinking about getting the T2, but my computer have just
one game port. My question is - Can i have the steering wheel and the
pedals working together with the T2 hooked on just one game port?
        Thanks in advance.

Yep!! The cabling for the wheel and the pedals are connected, thus
only one game port connection is required.

     Yes. The console/pedal board connect to the game port tegether
(it's all one cable). You'll need to use the little, white adapter in
the package, though. For example, I used mine on the game port of my
SB16 until recently when I purchased a Thrustmaster ACM. the ACM negates
the use of the adapter, though, and recognizes the console and pedal
board as different joysticks (although only one port is still used).

Xeeko,
        Sure, although it is sometimes necessary to have a Speed Adjustible
game card on faster computers.  
        When using the Formula T2 normally, you'll plug the pedal unit into
your joystick port, and the steering unit into the pedal unit's built in
Y-Cable.

The T2 comes with a Y-adapter for combine the signals from both pedals and wheel
- you may  want to ask Tmaster for the adapater to combine the signals into a
single joystick otherwise you will be calibrating single axis for 2 joysticks.
Its much easier when combined and your pedals are vertical and the wheel is side
to side on JOY 1
