I saw a wheel Grand Prix 1 from Thustmaster it got no pedals but levers in wheel itself, that nice i think no big computers mess (jokes, my pc is in the living room) or pedals that i push around the house. What do you think of it are they almost as good as a wheel/pedal like T1 or nascar wheel setup?? Thanks in advance
Collector, I have partial loss of the feeling and movement in my legs because of a spinal problem and I Iove the GP-1. It's easy to set up and break down and once you get use to it, you can go just as fast ( IMHO) with the paddles as the pedals. Tim Deatherage "Admitted Sim ***"

Collector, I ended buying two of these when the price came down so much. I figured I'd have a spare when I wore out the first one <ggg.> Seriously, I can't have anything under my feet, my sub sits there but also I think it would get kicked around all the time. My old T2 pedals took quite the beating. The GP-1 is a great little wheel, now that I'm used to it I don't think I'll ever switch back to pedals. All my lap times are essentially the same, that is slow <ggg.> All the best, Mike -- Michael S.

I've had one for almost a year now and am very happy with it.

It's a good entry level wheel, but you get sore fingers after too many laps. Paul

Furthermore, If you race as much as myself and everyone else in this group, you'll find yourself signalling a left turn instead of braking in your real car ;) Pedals are great (and realistic)!
