recall seeing it posted.
There is a wheel review at Toms Hardware.
http://www.tomshardware.com/consumer/02q2/020524/index.html
The only thing I can't really agree with is his liking of the Momo Pedals,
which I consider to be the worst pedal set I've ever used, and is the only
reason the Momo has been back in it's box since 8 hours after buying it.

Tom's Hardware wheel review and pedal preferences
Larry pointed to a Tom's Hardware wheel roundup but disagreed with its praise of the Momo pedals. Others suggested pairing the Momo with TSW or Redline pedals, praised Nigel Nichols' Redline products, and noted a new Thrustmaster Ferrari wheel. An exchange between Gerry Aitken and Larry about his unused Momo turned testy.

Agreed! It's a shame he can't knock 'em out faster. Coz for the price,
they can't be beat!

What makes you say that about the pedals? They look completely different
from mine.
The wheel is constructed differently from past Ferrari wheels
http://www4.tomshardware.com/business/02q2/020529/e3_day2-07.html , so I'd
expect the new pedal design is more than cosmetic.

How does these pedals compare to BRD7?
And were exactly is "the shop"?
I might drop by and take a look at them.
Jone.
The thing that I can't believe is that the TH crew didn't include GPL in
their testing suite for the wheels. I mean c'mon, if you're after a test in
precision driving, GPL is the only way to test!
Amen Brother!

You're quite welcome, got my racing PC setup here so you can try them
out, and no, Nigel doesn't pay me commission for this :-), just a very
satisfied customer

Thanks Goy, It would have been great to be able to test something like that!
But I'm afraid I'm not in Moss to often. Last time must have been like 15
years ago, and it could take another 15 years before I have any business in
or close to Moss.
I hope to have a decent set of pedals and more time to use them before that!

Not all games like that setup.
If it was universal, I'd be there!

What games? I might be able to offer a solution.

Gamers that don't like multiple controllers connected.

A lot of stuff will only work with one controller, though. Luckily, Papy
stuff isn't one of them.

Well F12002 and RT work too. Anything else isn't worth bothering with,
IMHO!
So why don't you just wire some TSW pedals to the Momo?

Yeah right, which is what you're wasting by keeping your momo in it's
box.
Can't get anyone to buy it.

Probably because your not sure what your doing yourself, so explaining
to me has helped you to understand your own actions. You said you were
not using the momo wheel ONLY because you don't like the pedals.
Well if you had any sense you would have wired a set you do like into
it. You could probably use the ones you are using right now. If you did
that you'd have an overall better setup than you now have, and would not
have a superior wheel sitting in a box.
You even hinted that Papy sims are your main concern, in which case you
wouldn't have needed to wire anything in. But hey, all I can say is:
Nice use of resources ...not!
Dude, get a life. I can handle my own just fine, thank you :) I don't need
mothering.
