Are you going faster with a BRD or TWS controller?

Is it worth to spend more? Thank you

I bought the Speed7 pedals about 1 month later but have yet to set a PB using them, although I have been racing better in N2002 using the new pedals. IMO high end controllers are definitely worth the money. If you are preapred to spend �300 on a graphics card, spending a similar amount on a decent controller that will last a lot longer seems sensible to me.

If you are cash strapped, then no. But as the old racing addage goes... If somebody asks how fast can the car go?...The mechanic will answer: How much money do you have? dave henrie

Hear hear I have a home made wheel, sort of like a TSW replica, and a set of Redline pedals, every so often I get to try another "standard" wheel/pedal set....and wonder why I didn't switch earlier Am I faster with this setup than my previous ones.....that I don't know, but most likely, but I know that I'm enjoying it more, and that's the whole point Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy "The Pits" http://www.theuspits.com/ "A man is only as old as the woman he feels" --Groucho Marx--

Phil, Excellent point. That's why I hung on to my Voodoo5 for so long. I purchased a TSW2 basic with split axis last summer and it was the best $250 I ever spent. Now I just got a Visiontek XTacy Ti4 4400.

The steering was so much smoother that my average laptimes got faster almost immediately.
