There is only one choice, Extreme Competition Controls. I have two and any sim driver shouldn't be without at least one. mets41 KP wrote in message ...

I just purchased the ACT LABS Force RS. Here are some of the features I discovered within the first day: Solid feel to wheel base and pedal unit. Both are relatively heavy to prevent moving. Excellent desk clamping system Split axis pedals with the click of a button Strong FF effects Can also work with Playstation or N64 with purchase of a $20 cartridge "Leather" wheel cover KP <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:LOJO3.6660$[email hidden]...

I've heard the Act Labs Force RS is an excellent wheel and pedal combo. Ex On Mon, 18 Oct 1999 18:38:35 GMT, "KP" <[email hidden]> wrote:

I'm a happy owner of the Act Labs Force RS, and I would highly recommend it. I've heard that the Logitech Formula Force is the best in it's own right, with many saying it is the most precise, has the best feel, etc. But, it also costs more. The Force RS has a high end feel, but one of the lowest prices. Figure it out yourself. (Although I wasn't altogether thrilled when I found out the wheel is almost impossible to get outside the Act Labs Online store.) Josh Middelkamp

The extreme looks really cool . Do you have the 3rd pedal clutch Model?

I don't think anybody can tell you what the BEST wheel to buy is -- that largely depends on your budget. I personally use a TSW2 most of the time, and I tend to prefer a high-end non-Force Feedback wheel over a Force Feedback wheel, but there are some great wheels (including those with Force Feedback and without) scattered across the entire price spectrum.
