Hey everybody, Over the last two months I have posted a lot of questions here about pedals and steering wheels for my pc. For about a year or more I have been using a logitech momo ff racing wheel (black version). I am happy with the wheel but I have been seeking to buy new pedals for a while. I made the decision on getting the TSW universal pedals, but now I am considering the whole TSW Cup setup. With the momo I have been using 50% FF, which isn't very much, but I guess I do rely on it some. How do you TSW users think I will adjust to using a wheel like the TSW which has no FF? Is the TSW wheel tight enough that it will have a little resistance despite the fact that there is no FF? BTW, the reason I am considering the TSW is because I have a second PC now and I would like to play NR2003 against friends via my home network. Thanks ahead, Shock
I have a black Momo w. TSW pedals (my fav setup), an Ol' Red Logi WMFF w. ECCI "tractor" pedals (my least fav setup) and an ancient ECCI non-FF that I bought for $400 in the last century that I still treasure. It depends on what you play...and how much you like FF. I actually prefer GPL w/o FF, at least w. the ultra-precise ECCI. OTOH, I have come to rely on FF w. N2003 w. 50% (or less) FF. Some modern sims have lousy FF (more like console "rumble" game pads) and some are unplayable w/o it. Personal pref, I'd say....

The spring tension as-is from Thomas is perfect for centering the wheel as needed and has plenty of resistance to turn against while cornering. I wouldn't go back to force feedback now if you paid me to, honestly. But who am I? A nobody, a semi-retired online league racer (I only race 1 night a week now lol). Take a look at the top handful of guys here whom you may actually recognize and see what they have to say about it: http://www.thomas-superwheel.com/feedback.html And I'm with the Carl Long guy on that page above, I've raced mine for a good good while (going on 3 years now) and it still races now like the day I unpacked it. I say give it a shot, you won't be let down, and even if you are, there will be someone that will buy a TSW off you I'd bet.

So far as I know, Carl Long is a not a TSW user. I apologize for the mix up.

I am actualyl slower on his Momo than on my own rig.

I have turned off FF on my MSFF wheel. I do not miss anything. I am looking at moving to the ECCI and TSW setups.
