For games such as World Circuit by MicroProse, Stunts, and IndyCar, I have been using either the Joystick or keyboard to drive. Does anyone have any experience with the steering wheels that attach to the joystick port? How much are they, and where can I get one? E-mail or post any reviews that anyone has. Thanks in advance, Chris Teague

Thanks in advance, I bought the CH Virtual Pilot for $54.00 and it is probably one of the best joysticks I have ever used. It works excellent with World Circuit. I used to use the keyboard, too. I had a CH Flightstick but just could not drive very well with it. The control going thru a corner is superb. The VP moves side to side like a steering wheel, but moves in and out for up/down movements. I'm still working on rudder pedals, but have been able to turn very competitive times with the current setup. There is one button under each thumb that I use to shift up and shift down. Places like Egghead wanted 109.99 but look around in Computer *** World and you can get it for half that price. Sonny
