That's pretty cool and not that expensive. Would come in handy for motorcycle games. Wonder what the shipping cost looks like, though. It's probably not cheap.

Hrmmmmm, I wonder if they actually got the clutch and the brake on the correct sides.
If you build a frankenpanel, chances are I don't care for you as a person.

Guys....does this thing do a L/R steering TWIST......as well as a Left Right/Fwd Back TILT?

If so?  Does this not make it the perfect candidate for hard-mounting a T2 style gun to make joystick-gun controls? T2, Operation Wolf, etc??

That was part of a gamespy article a ways back...lemme find link...HERE.  They reviewed the PS version of the freestyler, the same thing basically.  Pretty cool looking controller.

This might be a topic better suited for the "For Sale" forum, but I've got one of these things still in the box and rotting in my basement, if anyone's interested. Just email me, and we'll work it out.

How's it handle?  Any good?  Is that why you don't use it? Because it's crap?

To be completely honest, I'm just not much for motorcycle games, and it always seemed more trouble than it was worth. I love Logitech's MOMO steering wheel, though.

Anyhow, I think I've seen at least one online review  ....

http://www.gamespy.com/hardware/november02/pcspecial/index3.shtml

It's worth noting that my version has a playstation plug on the end and not a USB plug. Which, for our purposes, probably makes it less useful.
