Hi guys, I need some help in choosing a wheel. Between the following two wheels which would you go for; A. Guillemot/Thrustmaster's Ferrari GT with Force Feedback B. Logitech's Wingman Formula Force GP I'd appreciate any info, pro's & con's, etc. I'm leaning towards the Ferrari GT FF, it looks like a more solid wheel. Thanks! Steve

If you can afford the extra cost I'd go with the Logitech Momo. If you are in Canada and want to pay the shipping I can sell you my Logitech GP that I bought in July. "Steve" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:TgsM7.485$[email hidden]...

I like the Momo, but it's a bit (actually a lot) out of my budget. "Schooner" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:nssM7.64125$[email hidden]... > If you can afford the extra cost I'd go with the Logitech Momo. > If you are in Canada and want to pay the shipping I can sell you myLogitech

You should the thread above yours about my problems with the Guillemot/Thustmaster Wheel. It is really a nightmare trying to get it running. The support on their web site is pretty much non-existant (the FAQ consists of a single statement, paraphrased: If you're having problems with our wheel, its somebody else's software's fault). I wish now I had purchased the ACT Labs combo that so many people on here like. (I will probably end up with it anyway at the rate things are going, unfortunately, as the TM wheel no longer works).

Go with the Logitech, it seems to be one of the most popular. I got one for my niece for her birthday a couple weeks ago, and was pretty impressed with it. Don Burnette "Steve" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:TgsM7.485$[email hidden]...

If you were looking for one word to describe the Thrustmaster/Ferrari wheel, "solid" would not spring readily to mind. "meettonysoprano" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Thx for posting, Robert. Those comments seem to apply correctly to the PC versions, even though the review was written for a PS2 audience. --Steve Smith "Robert Gravel" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:zlBM7.5668$[email hidden]...
