STEERING WHEEL CONTROLLERS NEEDED

5 posts by 5 people · 23 Jun 1995 - 02 Jul 1995

I am suprised about the lack of steering wheel controllers currently available. I dont care for the Thrustmaster combo...build quality, feel...The Pro Wheel recieved some favorable reviews, but I havent been able to contact these folks so I guess they are out fo business. Does anyone have a Pro Wheel?? Simulations Systems in Cailfornia also seems to have disappeared. I read about a company called Interactive Digital Devices recently, but have no other info on them. Does anyone happen to have their address, telephone, fax# or other info?? cheers...

I can't help in your search for a Pro Wheel, but I do have a Simulation Systems ACP for sale. As for their 'disappearing', I guess IMHO they never really 'appeared' :-). Not the largest firm in the world, but the ACP is a decent unit. I currently have $300 combined in checking and savings, though, and some of these luxuries must go. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks, -Brad

Yes, I have a Prowheel & pedal set & I like it a lot. The only problem is I broke the spring i/s the wheel & had to replace it with one from Hechingers because the one Wizard racing sent with the wheel was too stiff. This is difficult & it is supposed to have a 1 year warranty, but spring lasted 3 weeks. I called Bob Boulanger,owner 4 times without a reply. The wheel way outperforms the T1 but customer support is nonexistent. So make your decision. If you are one of those AOL user bashers, please disregard this post.

If you have access to C-Serve drop a line to Trevor Thomas 74211, 2073. He makes a steering wheel controller called the TSW (Thomas Super Wheel). It is very well made,and comes with a lifetime guarantee (it is pricey , about $225) and is the best controller by far that I have ever used. Scott
TRY CALLING EXTREME COMPETITION CONTROLS THERE WHEEL IS NOT CHEAP BUT IT IS MADE TO LAST. ALSO THE CAR MUST BE SET UP REAL GOOD. WITH THIS WHEEL. OUT OF A PERFECT 10. I GIVE IT A 10+.
