With Logitech's WingMan Formula Force GP Wheel with Pedals, you can experience what really happens on the racetrack. The force-feedback steering wheel lets you feel the road, bumps, walls, and crashes. The custom-designed wheel shape includes rubber handgrips for comfort and precise steering control. Two wheel-mounted gear shifters allow for quick gear changes while staying in control. Four programmable buttons provide easy control of car functions and view changes. The space-saving console design takes up minimal room on your desktop and holds the wheel tight and secure with a dual clamping.

The WingMan Formula Force GP Wheel requires a USB connection and works on the PC platform.
Great Wheel/Pedal Set
This is the only set I have ever purchased and I bought another one 3 years after the first set. The first one was great and had zero problems. When I found the SportsCarGT game was included, I played it for 2 years before buying NFSPU which is even better realism and way more fun. Now I have my kids race each other through multiplayer on the home network and they love it almost as much as I do. I highly recommend this Logitech product through amazon. The 2nd set I ordered had faulty shift paddle contacts and amazon was quick to replace without extra charges or too long a wait even though it was out of stock 2nd time around. Yeah its a bummer when you cant play with a new toy, but this is the world we live in. Now I'm going to buy another one so three can play at once. The new one works great and does exactly what it claims. Although the new one didn't come with the game anymore and the cord design is still the same mess as mentioned by other reviewers. The axis choices and calibration controls are excellent for both sportscargt and NFSPU as well as the older NFS games I picked up on ebay for real cheap. The reviewer who had problems with pedal controls either didn't calibrate the set or didn't calibrate the game to work with the set or both. The settings are specific to the game and some setup is required in the game as well. Even if only to select the wingman as the device default. Some times the settings get messed up for one reason or another and need to be re-calibrated in the game itself. A pain yes, but not that big a deal to fix. As far as the realism critics, the rumble and the plastic may not be like a real car, but being a porsche owner, I can tell you from real world driving experience in both snow and rain that these cars respond just like the real ones. This set lets you practice techniques without damage to your own car. Also a Great way to see how different porsche models handle if your thinking about getting an older porsche, especially with older even more rear heavy 911's. You may decide that you don't like steering with your gas pedal. The performance for the price from Amazon is a no-brainer. Buy it and have fun.
