I have been using this Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP for at least 2 years. It has been plugged to my computer since day one. Playing the same old F1 2002 game for hours everyday for the pass 2 years. No problem no nothing. This product simply works and it works great. I will be getting FIA GTA soon. If this wheel ever die, I will surely buy another one without a doubt.

- Great Wheel/Pedal Set (3 Star since G25 purchase)
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. For the most realistic driving experience, move up to GTR2!

- good value
Just purchased my second Formula Force wheel because I accidently ripped a cable out. Had the first wheel for over 5 years. For the money, I think it is the best wheel on the market. Good force feedback, pedals have good response. Best game match I've found is the old Sports Car GT. I can make the cars do exactly what I want to.

- Great wheel
This wheel is worth every penny and even more; $50 is a great price. I've had mine for 2 weeks now, and played it a ton. It is very well-built, and no parts are getting loose or anything. It is very easy to install; you can get it out of the box and working perfectly in about 10 minutes. Anyone who says the wheel is too sensitive/jerky must not be very good at racing; the sensitivity is perfect. The force feedback is great. I play Nascar Racing 4 with it, and when you go on the apron or hit the wall the wheel jerks around very realistically. It also doesn't take very long to get good at using it, but that doesn't mean that you'll win every race either. There's not really anything bad to say at this wheel. This one's a winner.

- Get it!
I ordered the Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP w/ foot pedals on a late Sunday afternoon, using the super saver free shipping. I believe Amazon reports that the free shipping takes 7 - 9 days to be delivered? Tuesday afternoon at 4pm, almost exactly 48 hours later, the wheel was at my house! It arrived in a brand new, excellent, unscathed condition.

I took the wheel out and mounted it to the lip of my computer desk using the two screw down plastic clamps provided underneath the wheel. I thought the clamps looked flimsy, and would probably break easily! However, I have been playing for days now and the wheel is completely stable and does not move nor suffer from "plastic flex"! Just make sure you do _not_ overtighten them when you screw them down! Just get them secure, they WILL hold if you do it properly. I find the wheel to be the perfect size for my desk, I can keep it attached and use my keyboard and mouse without any problems at all.

Next, I positioned the foot pedals on the floor. My desk has a bottom board, and I put the foot pedals up against it so they won't slide. They have a jack similar to a telephone, and it plugs directly into the righthand side of the wheel. The A/C adapter plugs in next to the phone-jack type port for the pedals, and is very lightweight!

Then, I started up my computer and installed the software. You put the disk in, and it comes up with a menu that lets you install it. If you already have another Logitech device, such as a Wingman joystick, then you don't need to install the software! It uses the same stuff! Once the software is installed, you simply plug the USB connector into your computer, and POOF! The system will immediately make any changes it has to, and you can start using your wheel! I would strongly suggest a calibration before use.

The wheel and pedals are very durable, and work flawlessly. The paddle shifters are easy to reach and use! I find the best game to use this wheel with is Need for Speed: Underground. They make a great combo.

It takes a slight breaking in period to get used to using a wheel. While it makes the game very realistic, remember that it is still up to the game programmers to provide good game physics for using it! I've also played with a Microsoft Force Feedback wheel at a friend's house, and I like this Logitech a lot better!
