Thrustmaster rallye Force GT pro,only just out by looks of it.

5 axes, be good for clutch in GPL and stuff.Ball bearing steering
support.Price is similar to Momo Racing over here(Oz)
Anyone have one, what do you think?Considering getting one instead of the
Momo Racing Force.
Have ancient modded Thrusty GP1 with pedals ATM

    Well, if the Momo gives up anytime soon then one of these looks like a
no brainer as a substitute. :)

If it's cheap enough, I'll try one.  I hate this damned Momo.

I sure hope not :(  Hell, if PC games disappear, I may as well go back to
Mac's.

I dunno, looking at the new Xbox (at the store the other day before the
crowds) they seem pretty damn impressive, I see a wheel and pedals and
hooked to a HDtv being much more fun than freaking tweaking my ever lacking
PC that I paid big ass bucks for...  400 bucks just doesnt look to bad, that
is with hopes of Game Tittles I guess, as it is?  not so much but hell I saw
womeon playing (might been Battlefield2 on it) looked very good, on a 22
inch plazma, nice.

I second (third?  fourth?) the request for ANY information on where to
find this in the U.S.  Any word from Thrustmaster themselves yet on the
issue?

I'm in the market for a new wheel, but if this is as good as it appears
to be, I'll hold off on buying the Logitech DFP like I intended until
now.
