Hey all,
Just a quick update: I got the mini-steering wheel from FrizzleFried and everything works ok. Thanks again FF, very quick shipping and pretty darn good price: thanks!
Although I agree the ultimate solution would be to get a wheel that fits on top of my spinner knob, this does the job. At some point when I'm working on my next cab, I'll be upgrading to a higher resolution spinner (probably the GGG) with a larger wheel, 5" is a little small but dang it, I already had an easier time to play pole position than just using the spinner and that’s without using analog pedals, so thumbs up.
So what about those analog pedals?: I have a 270 degree USB steering wheel that works well (just don’t know how to attach it to the control panel yet). Anyway, I plan on keeping it connected but sitting beside the cab, therefore I can use its pedals with the mini-steering wheel and use the player 2 joystick as the “hi-low” shifter for those games that need it.
Randy: I don't know how your new wheels “feel”, but this one has a good weight, feels pretty good.
