    Me too! First one broke due to some paddle button breaking down, then they sent me a new one under warranty.
    After that I got a G27 which I still have today.

    I will take the memory and emotions about MOMO into infinity with me :)

    T300 + Leather 28 GT Rim and (used) Fanatec CSR Elite pedals - I only got them a little over a month ago, but is my first wheel setup, I was just using a XBox 360 controller in R3E previously....

    My first wheel was the Wingman Formula Force GP from Logitech... (with Colin 2, and Grand Prix 4) Good old times... :D

    So....you had the "deluxe" version ;)

    I had the non-rumble version, and gave it a fair hammering.....even pulled it apart and replaced the "elastic" bungee centering spring a couple of times:confused:......to think back then I thought I had it made :rolleyes:

    Since moved onto Logitech Formula Force, and then to (kinda begrudgingly due to $$$) the Logitech G29....

    Iirc it was more of a rattle on kerbs and almost wrist breaking with impacts, (which happened a lot in CM Rally). Upgraded much later to a DFGT, still given abuse by the kids to this day and for the exact same reasons, now on a G29 too.

    I remember having one of those as well. Although it wasn't anywhere near as pretty. Peddled that thing around until my legs fell off.

    Me too. But as I now remember, my dad made me a "car" himself, before I got one to peddle. Don't have any pictures of the selfmade "car" (he used a tin can lid as steering wheel), but I got some of the peddle car. Will post them when I get back from hollydays...:cool:
    I thought it was a cool car at the time...

    Digital Edge F1 sim. 7/8 of a turn lock to lock. Plugged into the soundcard gameport. No FFB or USB in those days. It ate potentiometers. I could change them with my eyes closed and used to buy them 5 at a time. The springs on the pedals broke all the time so I modified the brake to compress a toyota valve spring which worked surprisingly well. .Had some great times playing Jeff Crammond F1 series and Colin McRae series. CM4 online races with that wheel were seriously good fun.
