I am thinking of purchasing a TSW wheel/pedal setup from Thomas Enterprises. I would appreciate feedback from anyone who has tried one of their products. They sound very high quality, but would appreciate opinions from those of you who have tried them before laying out the big $ for one. How are they in GP2, Nascar 1 and 2, CPR, or F1RS? Thanks.

Youll be amazed how heavy duty the components are. The other whl units have problems with bungee cords, weak springs and etc. If you have the money and intend to race a lot--make the step.

Ken Buying a TSW is quite possibly the best investment you can make as far as racing sims go. They work the first time, every time. I've logged an exceptional amount of hours on mine, and havent even had it for 6 months yet. They are a complete joy to use, you wont regret getting one at all. Pat Hendrix27 on NROS

The TSW is worth every penny, mainly becase the top unit has zero plactic parts. Second, you can not wear it out. Third, the precision is what is need in real auto sims. If you drive auto sim, and serious about performance and consisency, the you'll be wise in buying a TSW. There after the sale support is awesome. Believe it or not there is a company out there called Extreme Control that produces driving wheel that costs well over 1000 dollars. The TSW is just a good. Rush Lynas Manor, Tx
>I am thinking of purchasing a TSW wheel/pedal setup from Thomas >Enterprises. Ken I've only had mine for about a month and love it, but that's not the whole story. I purchased a used TSW that was 2 years old. This used product has out-performed anything I have used in the past, which includes a TM T2 system and a CH yoke and pro pedal combo. Using the T2 with the CH pedals wasn't a bad combo, but it doesn't compare to the TSW experience. The TSW is solid and well built. I race N2, GP2, ICR2 and when I need to relieve a little stress NFS2. This wheel aces them all. Although I've never met him in person, Trevor Thomas seems like he really has his act together. I've sent several e-mails ( concerning upgrading my wheel) to TSW and every one has been answered within 24hrs. Trevor is very active in this news group and listens to the customer. I've been reading almost every post concerning the TSW for about 4 months and really can't recall a negative one( I'm not saying there wasn't, I just can't remember any). In this news group, that is a major statement. Buy it and have fun, you won't be sorry. Jim McCafferty

Thanks to everyone who responded. I've ordered a TSW sport which should arrive in a couple of weeks. F1RS should really rock then! Ken The Game Pad http://gamepad.org/
