If you haven't done so already, get youself out and buy a Logitech Momo wheel. After weeks of disappointment from my Thrustmaster FF GT, I had assumed that all FF wheels were just out for the 'novelty' factor. But, having had problems configuring my FF GT with GP and on hering that the Logitech Momo wheel had been fully tested and endorsed by Simergy & Infrogrammes, I went straight out and p/x'd my old wheel for the Logitech. Since installing it, it has worked like a dream. Not just with GP4 but with NR2k2 and CMR 3.0 to boot. The build quality is fantastic and well worth the extra (double) price.

I'd rather not have to pay the $$$ for a Momo just to get something that works properly.

There's a fraction of play before the wheel kicks in and while this is ok for rally type games it's no good for those that need fine movements, such as an F1 game for example. If I was to chose again I'd go for a non FF wheel such as the BRD Sim F1. http://www.interactiveracing.com/products/wheels/brdsim_f1.asp Here in Australia it costs around the same price as a Logi Momo.
Make sure you check out the pedals well to see if you can live with them. The pedals are the only bad thing about the Momo. If you drive a tractor for a living, and have tiny feet, you'll probably be ok :) -Larry "GD" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:0lsT8.4$[email hidden]... > In article <[email hidden]>,[email hidden]

You talked about 'a fraction of play'. Just wondering if you got rid of the dead zone? I'm sure you are aware of this already, but just in case you aren't , you can use a program called "DXTweak". I think its over on the wingmanteam.com site. Gary "Tony Rae" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Thanks, already tried that :) The play is in the gears and it seems that nothing can be done about it. Tony
