Steering Wheel/Pedals for Macs?

3 posts by 3 people · 13 Jul 1996 - 16 Jul 1996

I was wondering if someone on this group could help me. I recently purchased Papyrus' "IndyCar Racing" for the Power Mac. However, I have been unable to find a steering wheel/pedal combo that is Mac compatible. If anyone knows of such a product, or a way in which I could adapt a PC periperal to my Mac (such as the Formula II by Thrustmaster) please let me know. I do not wish to play the game on a joystick. Thank you for your help, J. Yeager

Included in the packaging of my ICR2 was a flyer from Thrustmaster announcing the Formula T2 wheel/pedal combo for the Mac. Priced at $149.95 you can order it direct from Thrustmaster (503) 639-3200 Jeff.

I called Thrustmaster and they said the Mac version would be out around August. Ie, that flyer is a little early but will be valid soon. I haven't found any other options for Mac wheels (I'm looking too). I'll probably buy something like a Mad Catz (for PC or Sony Playstation) and wire it into my Thrustmaster stick homebrew style (not really a problem if you don't mind voiding your warranty :)). Another cheap alternative, if you don't mind homebrew wiring and you already have a good stick to work with, is the Per4mer wheel (no pedals). I saw one at Electronic Boutique for $59 Cdn. j -- Dislaimer: Me, responsible?
