Well a couple of weeks ago my old joystick finally broke.
Now I'm in the market for a steering wheel. I'm thinking
about buying a NASCAR Sprint Wheel and I was wondering if
the hand shifters are attached to the steering column, so if
I need to shift in a corner it will be really easy. I
believe the hand shifters are the same one's used on the
Thrustmaster F1, but I'm not sure about that. Any advise
would be very helpful, thanks in advance.
I have the NASCAR Sprint and love it. Yes the paddles are on the
steering axis so gear changes in the corners are a snap. The pedals
are way to cheap and cheesy however. I linked my old T2 pedals to the
Sprint. Perfect combo if ask me. And you cant beat the $59 price
either!!!
Wheels down, pointy end forward!!

The Sprint has "flippers" on the back that are used for brake and
acceleration. There are buttons on the front that can be used for gear
shifting. Though the Sprint comes with pedals, they are not really
suitable. I would suggest spending the extra $20 and upgrade to the
NASCAR Super Sport. This has flippers on the back that can be used for
gear shifting, has excellent steering and pedal response.
