What Wheel?
EssexMame:
Christ, you're good BadMouth! You answer all the questions I have and then others before I've even realised I needed to ask them :-) Excellent info, thanks.
I've got the MiniPac which will connect to a ultimarc SpinTrak but as you say, the GroovyGameGear TurboTwist comes with the interface (optiwiz) and so it'll just mean I'm leaving the connection on the minipac clear so no biggie. I'll go with the TurboTwist and wheel I think (I wanted a spinner for Arkanoid anyway so it can double-up).
I'll look out for a 360 degree wheel on ebay now I know I can connect via Optiwiz and I think get this MOMO off my mate (cheap??). If all works out I can get the G27 later, or stick with the MOMO if I'm happy with it. It'll let me see if I get on with a wheel and see the pitfalls and benefits first hand.
Thanks once more.

The jump in quality, feel and involvement between the bottom of the range wheel and the G27 is NOTHING compared to the quality and feel jump from the G27 to the fanatec club sport base. I own 2 for my sims and worth every single penny.
Fanatec all the way imho.

Except you're looking at around $900 US to what the G27 gives you for $230 WITHOUT the Logitech Profiler software. :)
The Fanatec stuff looks awesome - but rich for my blood.

I considered the club sport wheel base for my next cab, but as far as I know it can't automatically change the pedals from combined/separate and adjust sensitivity based on what .exe is running. If they would do that, they'd get another customer (and I'd buy two). I just don't understand sinking all this money into developing a nice wheel and then not having software to make it useable. I also wish they'd sell a cheap adapter to use my own steering wheel instead of having to buy a wheel with a gazillion buttons on it from them.
I really wish an end user would make a profiler knockoff that works with ANY controller
....or a hack to fool profiler into thinking other wheels are Logitech wheels >:D

Although its buggy, not free, and not exactly straight forward to use.
