Dear All, I'm *very* tempted by RBR, but unfortunately by wheel does not support split axis. This has proved to be a major frustration to me in Rally Trophy, and I suspect it may well be the same in RBR. Anyone out there playing it without split axis and having a good time? Alternatively, does anyone know of a wheel with split axis that *does not need to use pedals*? Unfortunately my PC setup leaves no room for pedals (short of moving house, which is probably a bit more than I could convince my wife to spend to solve the problem.) Thanks, Ian -- Ian Riches Bedford, UK

It's not 100% necessary but it does help quite a bit. What do you currently use for throttle/brake?

I've got an ancient thrustmaster wheel that has two paddles and four buttons. The paddles are used for throttle/brake. I normally use two of the buttons for gear up/down, one for handbrake and the other for whatever seems good at the time.... Ian -- Ian Riches Bedford, UK

I don't think it particularly slows me down either, generally slaughter the 'medium' difficulty unless I hit a tree ;) A quick touch of the handbrake going into any of the slower corners, plenty of scandinavian flicking, and lots of throttle. Every time I try lfb it just slows me down and stuffs me up, and I prefer the feel of shifting my right foot around anyway. Charlie
