ACT Labs vs Guillmot??

any experts care 2 compare these 2 wheels? I'm right about 2 jump on one of 'em..... thanks 4 the advice! remove NOSPAM to reply ..or reply here... Tpenngotti

Guillemot is made of cheap plastic...and there is no shifter either.... Basically the ACT LABS is a REAL racing wheel, not a computer toy... .

There is a built in stick shifter as well as very nice paddle shifters. The wheel is nicely molded of rubber and the rest of the wheel is good quality plastic and metal. I'm not saying that recommending the Force RS is wrong because it's an excellent wheel, but describe the competition accurately. Slot http://home.maine.rr.com/deroy/howto.htm

Sorry, I wans't clear, by Shifter I ment the real thing even if you don't use it in GPL, a 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 and Reverse shifter, where you can brake and do 7-2 straight. Frankly even if the guillemot is not made of shit platic you cannot really compare the quality of the material used in both wheels.... This being said I really think that the act-labs is the best wheel around... GTX_SlotCar <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message : 4e1G4.4414$[email hidden]...

It certainly is a nice product and it's nice to see that you are enthusiastic about it. A good product sells on it's own merit without bashing the competition. All the top 4 selling FF wheels (MSFF, Ferrari, LWFF, and Force RS) have their good points. A person could be happy with either choice. Also, none of them are perfect. I think the real test is which company listens to consumers best and is willing to make timely improvements that enhance the product's usability. Slot

do either of these wheels have the tension filled action like the MS Sidewinder has...tension, like a real wheel turning left to right? thanks TP

I played with a guillemot for 2 days, and I sold some guillemot wheels when I was working in a computer shop....we had a lot of returns on the first series....Maybe it is better now though. The logitech is outdated, they will release a new wheel "Soon" (Official quote from Logitech) to correct the little problems they had with the yellow and red ones.... Microsoft....well...I don't even want to try...so I don't say anything about it. >
