    Alright, so I'm weeks from getting my driver's license (oh I'm WELL over 16... just lazy and kept putting it off, lol) and I was thinking of getting myself a racing wheel for some extra at-home practice. Won't be anywhere close to real, but it should keep me in shape.

    I was looking at the Logitech MOMO Racing Wheel. Opinions on that one? Other suggestions? Force Feedback and pedals are a must.

    Also, what are some true-to-life driving sims? I like arcades for playing, but I'd rather have some *realistic* cars for this kind of exercise. Graphics and game quality not important, as long as the driving model is realistic.

    Thanks in advance. :)

    don't buy a cheap one, most of them are slow. With slow i mean the racing wheel self will react a half second later than you steer.
