I received the 2 wheels I ordered yesterday and was playing last night (Nascar Racing 4)
These wheels are pretty good for the $$ .
They as stated are missing the hub cover but Im gonna find something to cover it up . It is really a HEAVY wheel , and comes with clamps and stuff to mount it to you desk for those exciting times when you crash and yank it too hard 🙂
The only thing Ive found I dont like is the shifter shares it's "buttons" with a couple on the wheel . If your thinking about one of these for a spare or for a kids PC , get it . If your like me and wanted a wheel but didnt want to pay big bucks , get it .
I split the shipping and costs with my cousin and we ended up paying like $13.40 a wheel shipped from ComputerGeeks .
 


<< JimBeam did good! KokomoGTS, there is a Saitek Force Feedback model R440 @ Best Buy online for $80. Is this the one you were talking about? BB also has the Saitek PC Racing Wheel, but it's not USB, for $30. How do these compared to other driving wheels? Is a (say an average) driving wheel a significant improvement over a joystick? >>



The Saitek Force Feedback is pretty nice because it is basically a repackaged MS wheel as far as I know but I would not buy it for $80, the serial wheel sucks don't get it.
Best Buy lowered the price of the Microsoft Force Feedback wheel from $129 to $99 and there is a $30 rebate right now so you can get it for $70.
The MS wheel is extremely tweakable and very precise, plus the pedals are much nicer than the ones on this wheel and the Saiteks.
