Thanx John Bodin

As per your post-review last week John I bought CompUSA's Formula Racing wheel for $14.99. {Actually bought Four!} Since I can't use my legs-feet I must use a race wheel with paddles and not pedals. I did use a Thrusmaster Nascar Sprint wheel & its a fine wheel but from now on it looks like Comp's Formula Wheel will be my wheel of choice. I have cut my lap-times 2-3++seconds on almost all tracks. Now who said "ya gotta" use a $200++ race wheel anyway?..;O) Just wanted to say thanx & let you know your post-reviews on r.a.s are appreciated. Cheers..

Wow -- I'm stunned and flattered. All I can say is thank you for your kind words. I can't tell you how very gratifying it is to get to hear how my efforts have actually helped someone in this manner. May you get as much enjoyment from the CompUSA Formula wheels as I've gotten from reading your message. See you in Winner's Circle! -- John Bodin Publisher, The IRL Insider Magazine http://irlinsider.adnetweb.com/

John, Here is my question. will the CompUSA wheel work with pedals. I have a T2 wheel and pedals with adapter so the pedals will join with anything I suppose. would this work? I finally got the feel I want for springing with my T2 but its kinda Fragile now and I am not racing much GPL so the sensitivity is not as much an issue. I will be looking at the CompUSA wheel this week and might give it a try tho I would like to use my old pedals. Thanks for all the info so far. Dave

David, I don't know if the CompUSA wheel could be adapted to work with pedals. It should be do-able, but I can't verify. The wheel uses the X-axis of Joystick 1, and the paddles use the Y-axis of Joystick 1; if you could wire the pedals as one (or both) of the axes of the Joystick 2 input, it would probably work. Unfortunately, I don't have a T2 adapter and pedals on-hand to check it out with. I may try to borrow a set from a friend to check it out, but if you find out first, please do let me know. Heck, for $15, it's worth trying it out to see. I'm sure CompUSA would take the wheel back if it didn't work, so you might as well see for yourself (and DO let me know what you find! <G>). Good luck! -- JB On 19 Apr 1999 03:33:00 GMT, "DAVID "
