You get what you pay for 2007-11-21
I do not have this wheel, but another Thrustmaster racing wheel. I believe its the Ferrari 2-in-1 racing wheel. I've had it for about 4 months, and not really any problems. Until a few days ago, when one of the paddle shifters just completely stopped working.

I've contacted their tech support 3 times, once via email twice over the phone. When I talked to them, they acted like they would do something to fix it, send parts, RMA or something. But nothing so far. It's been about 5 days since I first contacted them about the problem. Also every time I call their tech support agents always try to get me off the phone in 5 mins or less. I'm going to KEEP calling them until the actually do something about it.

I also have a Thrustmaster Joystick, that is actually pretty nice. So if you have a little more green do yourself a favor avoid the headache and get a logitech. I wish I did.


Good bang for the buck 2007-05-12
Very nice product from Thrustmaster, but still using plastic gears inside the wheel. Expected life 3 years or less under heavy loads...


Worked great... until it broke 2007-05-12
I had so much fun with this wheel. It worked awesome, especially in games that allowed you to do things like slip the clutch. Everything felt perfect. Well then one day the downshift paddle broke. This is a real bummer, since that is a very important control. The wheel is also starting to wobble. If you want to risk it, it is a great wheel, but mine is slowly deteriorating.


This could have been a great wheel 2007-03-21
My black MOMO died, pedals quit working, so I needed a new wheel. I've had good luck with thrustmaster wheels in the past so I bought the Pro Clutch Edition. Basic setup was easy. I have two basic problems with the new wheel. First and worst is the mounting of the wheel to the desk. For the life of me I can't tighten the clamp enough to keep the wheel from "rocking back and forth" when you use it in a game. This is very disconcerning when trying to race. Its like trying to race with a tilting wheel that wont lock in place. My other complaint is with the software that comes with the wheel. There is no way of assigning the buttons to any of the F-Function keys. I play the NASCAR 2003 game and you use the F-keys ALOT during race. Another irratation is setting up to use the clutch pedal. I managed to make it work once, but next time could not make it work. Its on the same axis as the brake and there is no way to split it off.
I really thought this was going to be a great wheel for me, but I would have been just as well off the buy a much simpler, cheaper wheel.


Thrustmaster Rally GT Force Feedback Pro Clutch Edition Wheel 2007-02-20
Having been a die hard thrustmaster user for the past 6 years I must say this wheel/pedal set was very exciting announcement. Well the excitement was short lived.

The forcefeedback motor belt was so tight the wheel couldnt recenter itself. After totaly rebuilding the wheel it improved slightly. Yet the Forcefeedback wasnt nearly as impressive as my old NASCAR pro unit.

The pedals where the highlight of the whole deal and while constructed very well and with decent pieces there was no way to adjust the resistance ont he pedals so the brake and gas and clutch feel all the same.

5-Axis, Force Feedback Racing Wheel with Clutch Pedal


I think I'd rate it four stars... if it had not arrived broken... 2007-01-29
I ordered this item from reseller AntOnline for Christmas for the kid. Item arrived broken. Within 10 mins of signing for the box I called AntOnline to rectify the situation, but calls were not accepted. So I sent an email which included pictures of the cracks. They answered *once* via email that UPS would be handling the issue. So I had then to schedule an inspection from UPS. Missed the person, so sent pictures to them. Contacted AntOnline who did not react. Called Amazon who told me to be patient. Finally called Amex, blocked payment, and now, more than a month later, I have a half-opened box under my desk and no resolution. Very bad experience with AntOnline (and Amazon).

Because the Thrustmaster was not in stock with Amazon I ended up buying the GT25 from Logitech, and we (note: WE) have not regretted this for a second. Who knew force feedback could make such a big difference?!?


Fun while it lasted... 2007-01-25
I bought this wheel for use with GTR2, Race, Richard Burns Rally and the like. The force feedback is excellent. The mechanism is very strong, but also very quiet. It makes for a very engaging experience with the games listed above.

Build quality and materials are not in the same league as the Logitech G25, but keep in mind it's less than half it's price.

Unfortunately I'll be packing mine up to send it back for a replacement. Only two days after using it the force feedback mechanism broke. Mid-turn I heard a snap, and the wheel went loose. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the replacement will hold up.

I gave it a 4 star rating because while it worked it was very good. I'll give Thrustmaster the benefit of the doubt that the unit I received was in fact defective and this was not the result of a design flaw.

One thing I should mention - I couldn't seem to get the analog paddles on the wheel to work independently of the clutch pedal. I normally don't use the clutch in games though, so it wasn't a big problem for me.
