I saw a controller and could not be certain they had some pots inside.
Also, do the XBox pedals have pots in them?

it acually has 6, 2 for each joystick, and one for each trigger
by pedal do you mean trigger(the 2 "buttons" on the unserside of the pad)?
Pyronious:
You should also be aware that the A, B, X, Y, Black and White buttons on the Xbox controller are pressure sensitive and send an 8-bit digital word back to the Xbox to tell it how hard it's being pressed.
The analog sticks and the two triggers have 16-bit resolution.

Now i have not done this with a wheel but have done it with a keyboard.

How would this help as there aren't drives for a keyboard or mouse in xbox games? For mame yes, but the poster never said he wanted to use mame he said driving games. :)

you guys keep saying that but i have no problem using my keyboard in a game. although its a pain it does work.
