i wont hit the wheel ofcourse cause it will be a whole new experience for me to learn rcing with the wheel cant wait.

Yes well im getting the wheel still today so i cant really tell you.
Its all about the driver and how dedicated he is etc.. my pb in BL1 with FBM is 1.13.74 (could do faster) with mouse so it took me about a month to reach it. I think i will get there with a wheel faster just because i know where to turn and aprox where to brake etc. we'll see ill keep you guys informed.

Mine's lasted for like 3 years

Well thats amazing... did anything change after 3 years of use, smth with pedals the wheel itself?
Im still going to need the wheel till summer than im getting the g25.

Well imo, it depends how you will use the wheel, if you will use it more carefully it will last longer. And im just going to use it untill summer or till the middle of the summer. my mom said shell guarantee well go and get thr wheel tommorow. So happy day

Dont know if ill use it for drifting, just actual racing
happy with good feedback mabe ill convince muy mom to go and get the wheel in todays evening... still have one hour till shops close

well my mom screwed me up and shes not going to buy me the momo wheel today.. and i freakin hate her for that. maybe tommorow maybe.......

Ahh ok then. Well im going to write when i get the wheel tommorow now im going to bed. Night

Any more advices what i have to do before i spin out of the track when im doing a 1.13 lap and right before the finish i spin out of the track in the last corner and i just want to smash my head into the freakin monitor. ic ant control it... ok im going to sleep see you tommorow with the momo

g-night

yeah exactly. do other single seater race cars have the same shifting and throttle lift off as FBM?

i understand that. when i use auto gear on fbm its not neccesary to lift off the throttle button, but if i use manual gearing i have to lift off the throttle. simple as that.

When using a manual gear shifting on the FBM you can to let off the throttle while shifting and does it work the same on other single seaters as well?

And i think ill use auto clutch though, or maybe just select one of the 6 buttons for a clutch. Dont know.

So the botom line is i cant use the heel & toe technique on the momo racing pedals?

P.S. about FFB : i was reading some articles, threads, posts etc that people are having
problems with wheel force feedbacks, wouldnt it be better to use a minimum feedback percentage to prevent from various force feedback problems?

The momo wheel costs 110 euros in my local area.

but anyway if we are talking about the momo wheel i suggest going in this thread where i asked about the momo wheel + and -

http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=987831#post987831

Ohh almost forgot to ask :

can you do the heel and toe downshifting thing with the momo racing pedals?

What you mean no good for driving?
And the wheel isnt too large i think its almost the same size as in single seater vehicles.

im just feeling sad when you guys find disadvantages in a thing i want to buy, but thank you for your honest answers, your really helping me. Thanks.

Nope i havent ordered the momo im going to the shop to get it.
But the Driving-Force-GT wheel is a bit too pricey for me though.

Will it be possible to do fast laps with the momo wheel? ill just try that thing out for half a year.

Thanks for this kind post DrBen so your point is about the steering wheel is that the momo one is rubbish? im getting one tommorow, maybe you can tell its minuses. And ill still get the g25 like till summer, the momo will just be a temporary thing...

Im more into single seaters than race cars, cause im into go-karting in rl.
Of course watching vids with GTR cars seems like fun, well we will see when ill get S2...

But S2 costs 24 quid, not 32?

P.S. FBM is the vehicle im really in love with, cant wait to try other single seaters, especially MRT.

So can you set the momo to turn like a little bit easier? cause i remember after racing for like an hour of racing my arms almost fell off.

Double post :

Caught another pb of mine 1.13.74 with a mouse. Damn im in a good mood right now ^^
Any ideas what could i improve on T1, cause i loose quite some time there?

That article really helped thank you

yeah well it will be a good buy i guess for the amount of money.
i had a chance to play with the momo couple of years back and i remember it turns pretty hard, more harder than g25 so isnt it a little bit exhausting to race with it?

the pedal pots will eventually become more and more inaccurate; you can clean them, but once they start going, your best bet is to keep adjusting the axes with DXTweak2

could u give me more info about it what is DXTweak2?

What you mean by quality is crap? That the whole built is crap or...?
If the quality is bad that means it can break very quickly if you force the wheel to turn more anywho there will be a 24 month warranty if it breaks they will fix it

And isnt Logitech supose to build quality stuff not bad?

P.S. what about the pedals? Do they fuctionate well after long use?

Well i didnt convince my mom to support me to get the G25 so im going to have to buy the Logitech MOMO racing wheel tommorow still excited.

i just want to make sure im buying a good product and if it will suit me untill next autumn or maybe earlier. what problems people encouter most with this racing wheel etc.

Just give proper information how it works with LFS, FFB etc. Minuses and pluses.

Thank you

Will sure do thanks for the info.

Well im going to get a steering wheel today and hopefully my mom will support me to get a G25 bear with me
