1.0 out of 5 stars All or nothing., November 9, 2002

This review is from: Thrustmaster NASCAR Pro Victory Racing Wheel for Xbox (Video Game)

To say the center dead spot is "huge" is an understatement. There is no "minute adjustments" with this wheel. You're either going straight or turning 90 degrees.

i bought it for use with Rallisport Challenge and it is totally unusable. The game demands constant steering input, and this wheel doesn't give it to you. The sensitivity adjustment button on mine must be broke, because pushing it to change the sensitivity had no discernable effect.

The controls are, apparently, not user configurable either. The paddles, for some bizarre reason, control your gas and brake instead of your gears, and there's not a thing you can do to change it. Very counter-intuitive.

i will be returning this wheel.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great steering wheel breaks in less than three months, March 21, 2002

First let me preface this: The Thrustmaster Steering wheel has some excellent features: Adjustable steering sensitivity, button setup, and nice throttle sensitivity make it a very nice playing wheel. I've had a great time with it, until a week ago.

I had some worries about the controller from the beginning, as it made some ominous creaking noises out of the box. These concerns were confirmed last week when something snapped in the wheel during Rallisport Challenge. This has caused a steady increase in slackness in the wheel, resulting in a deadspot that makes the wheel unusable. Bummer.

Let me add, this is my first bad experience with a peripheral, I've never broken anything else in the past, including other third party wheels (Logitech<PS2> and Mad Catz <DC> are two other steering wheel peripherals used extensively). Purchase at your own risk...

Totally disappointing. The dead space is unbelievably large and the 8-directional button keeps misinterpreting input strokes. Can't believe this junk has the Thrustmaster name on it. The wheel is cheap plastic construction and has a very flimsy feeling. Don't waste your time and money on this one.
