Nah, the rushing is already over and done with a couple of months back when I already bought the g29, and for my intents and purposes it is fine.
Just getting the shifter wouldn't near as expensive as selling it for a pittance on the used market and buying something more expensive that most likely wouldn't be
that much better to begin with.
If I'm going to do anything nutters is to get back on the x-sim boards and research the idea of a 3DOF motion plattform.
I would like one, but haven't the fecking clue how to build nor any of the tools needed to do anything for it.
Heck I don't even have a workbench.
If you happen to have a spare shifter I could always forward some shipping costs or whatnot
So far the paddles do ok for me, and it's not like you gain much with the shifter in regards to speed\time.
Update: aah, the th8a works as a standalone usb device with a PC, I wouldn't have to switch for a thrustmaster wheel.
It is 3x the price of the logicrap one though, but it does look a lot sweeter...
