Yeah, I've had no problems with the wheel and it lines right up there next to my Formula Force. Either one is a good buy. -- Tony Wyss, Editor-in-Chief Gamer's Alliance Sports www.ga-sports.com --------------------------------- Gamer's Alliance, Inc Site Relations Coordinator www.gagames.com -------------------------------- "I'm not an athlete, I'm a baseball player" - John Kruk
I noticed a local retail chain is now stocking the Act Lab wheel here in NZ. Whilst most people seemed to like it in initial posts, how is it holding up a few months later -pots wearing out? pedals breaking?, or is it pretty robust. Refering to non-force version in particular.

Refering to non-force version in particular. I've had one since last July. It was doing great, no broken bungees, everything was fine. It did finally break a few weeks ago, but only because of my three year old son always *** on it while climbing onto the computer chair. I've got a new one now and I'm sure it will last for a long time (I don't let him touch it anymore :) ). The ACT Labs wheels are very well made. The pots do start spiking rather quickly. They don't wear out, they just get dirty. I keep a can of WD-40 nearby which fixes the problem. An electronics cleaner would probably be a better solution than the WD-40, but I haven' tried that yet. -- Pat Dotson IMPACT Motorsports http://www.impactmotorsports.com/pd.html
