On Thu, 17 Jun 1999 12:36:17 +0200, hmmm.. that is like going into a shopping mall and yelling out "which car is best"? I suspect you would get many varying answers. I have a TSW wheel and an ACT LABS Force RS. I love them both. Next ....... -- // email: rrevved at mindspring dot com
I have a TM sprint - its relatively cheap and the contsruction is good - but the gas and brake pedals are on the same axis - and after about 6 months heavy use, the potentiometer that controls that axis is beginning to get "noisy" - (i.e it takes a while to return to centre when the pedals are released.) If I was buying another one, I'd go for its bigger brother, the TM Super Sport. Steve

Sorry to disagree Steven but I use the Nascar Sprint almost exclusively because I must use the paddles on the wheel for gas & brake and it can/will use "Split-axis!" Just download the latest full version of drivers from 'Thrustmaster' {v1.3 I think?} & then use the "Thrustmaster Pro" for your wheel. It sets'up up a little oddly in the driver screen but it works! I have used it for the past 3-months without a***ch! Good Luck.. Thom_j.
