Although the SRW-S1 and Simraceway has a steep learning curve, it works very well once you have become accustomed to it. The motion detection is perfect and there is zero lag. The accelerator and brake paddles work very well however the gear change pa...
Abstract: Steelseries SRW-S1 Gadget or SimulatorSteelseries have moved into a new direction with the SRW-S1 steering wheel. It has no pedals, no desk mount. It's a steering wheel with everything you need and more in one small package. The SRW-S1 has been co-designe...

No axis, Arms could get tired using it for long periods, No force feedback

Compatibility (100% Only With The Simraceway Game), Can't Use It For Long Without A Base, No Force Feedback,
After spending quite a few days playing racing titles with the Simraceway SRW-S1 (enjoyed every single one although it did take me some time to get used to it) i really feel that something's missing. The controller is actually quite amazing not only becau...
