Am considering getting a new wheel/pedal combo to replace my old TSW. Is the complete ACT LABS system with clutch and shifter an improvement? Any other suggestions really appreciated! Playing mostly Nascar 2002 & GTR2002 these days.... Hank
Hank, Why would you want to replace a quality lifetime wheel with a mass produced limited useful life wheel? Thomas wheels literally last forever. And whatever replacement parts are needed are just a email or phone call away. My TSW2 has the same exact feel and precision today as it did 3 years ago. My old MSFF wheel didn't make 2 years, and before that my Thrustmaster T2 broke more springs (even the newer ones) then I could keep track of. Save your money for a new wheel and put it towards your next computer upgrade. Joel Willstein -- "If you can leave black marks on a straight from the time you exit a corner till the time you brake for the next turn , then you have enough horsepower."

Even with the slop in the wheel bushing and funny pedals, the force feedback was well worth it. I now have an old style (ball bearing) MOMO. The shifters are a personal decision. Unless you just run the road courses you don't shift that much in NASCAR, and paddle shifters are pretty realistic everywhere else except GPL. My ideal system would be a MOMO wheel and TSW pedals.
