Best wheel for GPL

Just purchased GPL and have the Andretti Racing wheel setup. Is there another reaasonably priced wheel which will give more precise steering? Thanks.

The Andretti wheel is about as good as they come, especially for precise steering. The next step would be a FF wheel, the the steering won't be any more precise. Or, if you've got a few hundred to spend, there are some real nice wheels that may be more precise than the Andretti. Slot

If you have $500 to spend, a high tolerance for excuses, and 6 months to kill while waiting for delivery, then I'd recommend the SRC wheel. It can be found at http://www.mindspring.com/~srcwheel

Where does this $3000 come from? Hypers start at $767US/$1095Cdn. I did qualify by stating the Ultimate. Reasonably priced is different for each of us.

Forget the options, the base price of the Historic model you recommended to a guy looking for a "reasonably priced" steering wheel is $2,657.00 plus whatever it costs to ship one of those monsters. That's closer to $3000 than it is $767, and closer to insane than reasonable in my opinion.

Whooeeeee, I couldn't imagine spending that kind of money for a racing controller. But, then again, I ain't rich :) -- Don Burnette Dburn in N3 and Legends > "Rory S.

Tracey, One of my earlier posts stated: I did qualify by stating the Ultimate. Reasonably priced is different for each of us. People are willing to pay more if they perceive the value. Let him judge. I thank people with intelligent comments so I won't thank you. End of conversation. Period. Rory S. Brown

I keep reading about the Hypersimulator and it's price tag. What I really want to know is who has one, and are you married ? And if so, how did you get it past your wife ? One confused puppy, Joel Willstein

I have one since three years and it is just great. I bought a pre cut kit so the assembeling and painting had to be done by myself. The charge was about DM 2.500,- if I remember right. Les than you have to pay for a fast PC and it definately last much longer. How I get it past my wife? I told her I have bought one. Meanwhile its the favourite and one of the most comfortable chairs in my house :-)) Jo Lueg Joel Willstein schrieb:

Dang, and I was ***ing about spending 230 bucks on a TSW2 :) I guess it's all relative, to me I just can't justify spending thousands of dollars on a controller. I will however, soon, be adding the wiring kit and buttons to my TSW2 :) -- Don Burnette Dburn in N3 and Legends > I have one since three years and it is just great.

That argument would make sense if the original party didn't quantify his request by asking about a reasonably priced wheel. You have several models, some starting at under $1000, that you could have recommended. Not everyone can afford the ultimate, but we all want high quality. Why not just recommend the Hyperstim and let him decide how much Hyper he can afford? That is such an immature, cowardly statement it doesn't even deserve this response.
