I'm using a logitech formula force, great wheel for under a hundred =
bucks, IMO. Although if you could get force feedback pedals, i.e. abs =
that would be real cool.

    Hmmmm, I always ignored the first lap time. Dammit, now I have to go =
do a
    lap :) Ok, I got a 1:44.13. I do know that after the first lap, I =
get from
    1:37 to 1:40 pretty consistently (my best is 1:37.25 so far). I =
knocked a
    good 3-4 seconds off my lap times after I gave up the mouse and =
hooked up my
    wheel. I've only tried the GT once, last night, and I had the =
tendency to
    lose it coming out of the corners.
