ACT Labs

Hi all, I am a new entrant to this group and its great to find other people who appreciate realism in their "games/simulations", all the arcady players don't know what they're missing ! However, I need advice about a proposed wheel system setup that I'm going to buy. Its all act-labs gear; the force RS wheel The clutch system pedals and the RS shifter (8 gate) Any one have any opinions on these products ? are they the best ? They're expensive enough !! Also does anyone know of anywhere that sells them in the UK ?? I've checked on the act-labs website, but their European resellers don't have all the gear that I'm looking for.

I bought a Act-Labs shifter about 2 weeks ago, took me another week to get used to it,,best sim purchased I'ved made since my TSW2 wheel. Once you get used to the shifter you won't want anything else... On Tue, 8 Jan 2002 22:56:21 -0000, "Gavin G" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Quickest thing I can do is direct you to the review of my Force RS I wrote at: http://www.racesimcentral.com/articles/reviews/actlabs/act1.htm and of the RS Shifter at: http://www.racesimcentral.com/articles/reviews/rsshift/rsshift1.htm Cheers Phil Lee -- Race Sim Central Administrator http://www.racesimcentral.com

I would say that compared to their price - they pretty much blow the doors of the competition. (I have not tested the RS wheel - but both the pedals and shifter rocks..) -- ed_
