The Logitech Driving Force GT steering wheel is the official Grand Turismo 5 racing wheel. It is packed with many great features which make your PlayStation and PC racing games come to life! Here are a couple of things you will get from this great racing wheel (it comes with a 1-year limited hardware warranty):
Force Feedback
The force feedback on this wheel is incredibly precise. It accurately reflects all the action taking place in the game. You can feel every inch of the road, every bump, crash, spin and collision. Traction loss, spin outs and loss of car control are amazingly life like. The force feedback can be adjusted if you prefer a less hectic ride.
The Wheel
The racing wheel has 900 degree wheel rotation and it auto centers itself as you come out of a turn just like a real car. It has an 11-inch rubber overmold so you won’t experience any slipping even after a long racing session.
24-Position Adjustment Dial
You can fine-tune many settings such as power steering force, brake balance ratio between front and back, traction control etc. All these adjustments can be made on the fly without having to pause the game.
System Compatibility
One of the things that we love about the Driving Force GT racing wheel is that it is fully compatible with both your PC and both PlayStation2 and Playstation3. If you would like to use it with your PC this is what you will need.
