If you can find a PS2 wheel that uses USB for cheap, get it :D

I borrowed Steve C's Logitech Driving Force PS2 wheel and plugged it into my PC. It found a device and added it as a wheel. I tried to use it but the pedals were VERY sensitive and the wheel not very responsive, shite I thought :(

Then it occurred to me, why would they make 2 different USB wheels .... hmm so I went and downloaded the drivers from Logitech for a PC wheel and installed them, voila, pedals work progressively and the steering wheel is much better, the force-feedback works as well!!!!

So if you can find one cheap, get it :D

BTW GT3 Aspec is a totally different game once you start using a wheel. I have started playing it again after a year, and it's great.

What do you mount the wheel on out of interest?

Mine is the logitec one with the lap mount. Works much better than trying to find a table to bolt it to. All I need to do next is bring on of my bucket seats infrom the garage and I'm sorted :D

This particular one came with a lap grip thing and desk clamps so I've got it clamped to my desk :)

<shhh> All Logitech wheels should work on the PS2 as well, including the lovely momo ones, but Sony don't want you to know it.
