Recomendation for good USB wheel/pedal combo?

My trust old F1SIM wheel & pedals my soon be put to rest so I'm looking for a new controller. The new Gravis USB joystick that I bought works fine and it's pretty good for fighter aircraft sims. What I'm looking for now is a good USB wheel and pedal combo for motor racing sims. I'm not too sure if I should go for FF or not. My F1SIM wheel had a very wide turning angle and so I'm hoping to see something similar in any new wheel that I get. Could any of you provide me with recommendations on which controller to go for? I guess that my upper price limit is about �300 but I am willing to consider something a bit dearer if it really offers a lot of benefits. Thanks in advance. -- Kulvinder Singh Matharu E-mail : ksmatharu # ieee . org [without the spaces and where #=@] Website: http://www.matharu.demon.co.uk/ t.i.n.s.t.a.a.f.l.

If you got the money, get the Act Labs RS Force... it's built like a tank, and you can by an add-on shifter unit that acually works like a real shifter (7 gears and a reverse, though only a few games support this shifter right now. Nascar 3 and Nascar Heat being two that I know of) You can only get it though I think through the WWW at http://www.actlabs.com "rik anthrax" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6Qup5.17964$[email hidden]...

Thanks all for the recommendations. The Act Labs wheel looks pretty solid but am concerned with the small wheel paddles. Also, it's pretty big in size and there just isn't any space for it on my desk...unless I upgrade the desk! The pedals don't seem to have much travel in them either. -- Kulvinder Singh Matharu E-mail : ksmatharu # ieee . org [without the spaces and where #=@] Website: http://www.matharu.demon.co.uk/ t.i.n.s.t.a.a.f.l.
