I am very good at most arcade racers and even some sims...
I am using the Microsoft sidewinder gamepad and I cannot stay on the road in
NFS3 and I always finish in last.....Its not the settings or pad and I was just
wondering if anyone had any advice........................

Hi
After I got my wheel I became a much better racing driver. Its a big difference
between a wheel and a pad. My advice: Get a wheel.

Which one? I have never used a wheel. Do they plugin
to a standard joystick port or use one serial port?
What does a good entry level wheel cost?
Thanks

The "Possible" best bang for your buck currently COULD be the Act-Labs
RS for arround 69.00. I have NEVER tried that wheel but have seen/heard
good things about it. For myself (Note: I have about 1,400 races and
40k+ online laps and have been ranked #1 at times on TEN/NROS) I have
always used a Thrustmaster GP1. The wheel has been very good to me and
I just recently purchased a set of CH Pedals for 45.00. The GP1 can
probably be purchased for under 50.00 and is a very good/inexpensive
sim-wheel.
