    Manufacturer Description
    Shift gear and put the pedal to the metal with the R660GT Force Feedback Wheel. Immersion's patented force feedback technology lets you feel the crashes, shunts, changes in road surface and tire grip through the wheel. The R660GT Force Feedback Wheel gives you the racing advantage, making your laps faster and faster.

    Catering for both left-and right-handed drivers, a semi-automatic gear shift lever can be mounted either side of the wheel; for those of you who prefer a paddle shift, there are also two gear shift paddles. With four buttons on the front of the wheel as well, all the controls are right where you need them.

    Unlike other force feedback wheels, the R660GT will stay where you need it to. A soft touch grip ensures that the wheel won't slip through your fingers and a strong G-clamp keeps the wheel rooted to the desk, even in the heat of a race.

    Control setup is also well covered by the wheel's driver: Set your pedals to work independently of each other or combined, to suit different games or your driving style. With the R660GT Force Feedback Wheel, unscheduled pit stops should be a thing of the past.

    Nice controls3
    First off, I really am quite pleased with this steering pedal combination. The steering clamp holds the wheel securely to the desk but I did have to mount the pedals to a board to keep them from sliding around on the floor(I assume this would happpen with any gaming pedals).The overall feel of the wheel and the force feed back is good. My only complains are: the materials, particularly the pedals, seemed a bit flimsy and when playing GTR Evolution, no other Saitek keyboard inputs (Saitek Eclipse or Cyborg Command unit) could be plugged in or the game would not recognize the steering and pedal controls. However, once I removed them and plugged in a spare Dell keyboard, everything worked just fine. In closing, I would say that for the forty bucks I shelled out I got pretty good deal and can recommend this system.

    Saitek Tech Support4
    I had trouble with this wheel. In games such as need for speed series, I could not set the controls, the menu would scroll to the bottom. Race Driver GRID was just undriveable. The games I did get to work were a blast.

    I emailed Saitek and received a quick response. 'downloaded DXTweak. The link says DXTweak V2, You actually get version 4.30.229.'
    Set Brake to Min 0, Cen 512, Max 1024
    Set Gas to Min O, Cen 256, Max 512

    It worked! Everyone who has tried it just laughs, I feel I got my moneys worth.

    Cons: I don't care for the ethernet cable from the pedals to the the wheel, it could have had a connection on both ends, could be trouble if it breaks, same as with the usb from the wheel, a cord that unplugs would be better. What if my box was farther away? For these reasons, only 4 stars.

    Pros: I had no problem installing Saitek software/drivers on Vista x64

    This is a fantastic setup and I just love the overhead mounted pedals that raises them to a very near realistic feel.
