Hi....... I just purchased NASCAR2, and I really enjoy it. I've been around the net and downloaded some 'setups' for various races. I'm using a Gravis joypad which is fine....but....which brings me to question 1.... Any suggestions for the best steering wheel controller to use with N2? And my second question..... Can anyone suggest a spot where I can request a custom car paintjob? I've been trying with Paint Shop Pro 4.12....and I can't get the hang of it.... Thnaks in advance for any and all responses...... Tony V.

Welcome to Nascar2! It's given me hundreds+ hours of enjoyment, and a few grey hairs... As far as a wheel I use a Thrustmaster T2...it fairly inexpensive, around $100.00 and works real well. They have a newer version out called the Nascar Pro wheel but I've never used it so can't comment. With a wheel/peddle combo you will reall pick-up your lap times and just find the whole sim more realistic and enjoyable! As far as a good painter--there's lot's of em out there. Just start hitting the N2 sites and you'll find em. If I knew a specific one I'd tell you but I don't--sorry. Have fun, and practice practice practice! R. Faust aka Xducer

I have been using the Nascar Pro Wheel for some time, and like it very much. It will cost you about 30 bucks more than the T2, but has double springs on accelerator and brake. I have broken 2 springs so far, but haven't been down because of the double spring setup. Thrustmaster says they have an improved and stronger spring for replacements, haven't received them yet, so I don't know if they are better or not. My opinion is that the Nascar wheel is worth the extra money because of the much better feel than the T2. Hope this helps. -- Regards, Ed Medlin www.edmedlin.netminds.com Sim Columnist, Software Critics Unlimited www.softwarecritics.com >Hi....... > I just purchased NASCAR2, and I really enjoy it.
