no...I think its just that!
But such a simple thing such as that will inmprove the game play A LOT!
Not enough racing games are out now so I keep away from that for now!

It will feel like your driving a car. That's what its supposed to do. Anyway, I plan on playing my driving games in "first person" (I think that's the word) it will look and feel great.

i dont get how youre suppose to accelerate with it, the buttons on the wii mote are too far in for them to be pushed, not to mention the comfortable positions people prefer while driving

In theory, you could duct tape it to some styrofoam plate and it would be the same

i have the wheel myself. i got it with gt racing game. its quite funny lol and playability is good. infact my whole family like it lol. even my misses lil kiddie likes it.

its alot easier to use than any other steeringwheel on certain consoles. at least withi this one theres no cables and a damn foot peddle box to deal with haha
