TM GP1

2 posts by 2 people · 04 Oct 1998 - 05 Oct 1998

Does anyone know how to change the bungee on this wheel? I get a dot hat moves wildly when I read the calibration. It only happens after left and right hand locks, on the return. I checked it with the TMscope utility. Is it hard? what should I use to replace it? I also might need a new pot. Is that hard to replace? Or should I just go and buy a new wheel? Is the Nascar wheel with paddles on the wheel and pedals any good? Thanks, ZZ Busch -- Busch Carpentry "Plans?" ---------------- Busch Motorsports "Remember racecar is racecar spelled backward"

Check out Alison Hines excellent site for info on how to change the bungee in the TM wheels. http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~alison/sims/ It's really quite easy, I'd say I probably change mine every 6 weeks just to keep it in top form. For bungee material, find a local hardware store that sells bungee cord in bulk, it costs me about 85 cents a foot. Three feet will keep you going for a long time. I prefer using a cord thats one size smaller than the cord used by TM (3/8" I believe). I checked out the new Nascar Sprint wheel and pedal setup last Friday at Interact when I picked up GPL. I like the 4 buttons on the steering wheel but the pedals look pretty cheap to me. I'll stick with my GP1 and CH pedals at least until the Nascar Supersport hits the streets. -don "To race is to live, everything else is just waiting." - Rudi Caracciola
