Aussie Cheese Fries 23 Mar 2003 14:42 UTC#72352
I have used Thrustmaster NASCAR wheels for the past 5 years I'm on my third one (NASCAR Pro Digital 2) I'm thinking of going to a force feed back wheel what are some of the better wheels for $100 To $150 price range?
I can't imagine the debate not coming down to either the Microsoft or the Logitech, and you're gonna hear different opinions on both. I have a Momo Racing and am very happy with it. I think durability is comparable between the two models. I happen to like a shifter, and so went with the Momo. You're best bet would be to figure out what features you want, then look for the wheel you can afford. With a lot of racing, neither wheel is gonna last forever. hth, jeff "Aussie Cheese Fries" <[email hidden]> wrote in news:rJjfa.41922$[email hidden]:

I think the choice would be act-labs rs $140 and the logitech, i can only speak for the act-labs rs i've had mine 2 years and i'm very pleased i did upgrade to the performance pedals "JCanar" <jcanar@nosp/-\m.attbi.com> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I can't imagine the debate not coming down to either the Microsoft or the > Logitech, and you're gonna hear different opinions on both.

If you're a Thrustmaster man (as I have been in the past) take a look at the Ferrari F1 FF (not the old Guillemot based one). http://us.thrustmaster.com/products/lookproduct.php3?productid=169&skin=Ferr ari Andi.

The most solid wheel in that price range is the MSFFW. Great pedals, Optical Pots, and proven reliability. Most of us that have them have been using the same wheel for several years now without incident. I'm just now starting to have a problem with the left paddle shifter not hitting all the time, but I've been beating on it for nearly 3 years now. I'm sure a shot of tuner cleaner will fix it up.

I have had both the Act Labs rs and the Logitech Momo. I prefer the Momo. But what do I know.

I've thought of trying the momo can anyone tell me if the act-labs performance pedals will work without modifications?

Yes for both Racing and Force in F12k2/GTR2k2 and NR2003. "jwilson54" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6n3ga.214292$F1.12381@sccrnsc04... > I've thought of trying the momo can anyone tell me if the act-labs > performance pedals will work without modifications?
I have both the original Momo and the MSFF wheel, both usb. Right now I prefer the MS wheel due to the increased pedal travel, I seem to be more consistant in N2003 with it. Still a slow ass though. Don Burnette Todd Sorensen wrote:
