Yep, I've got one. Seems ok to use to me, (although the force feedback could be a little stronger).

I have tried using it with a Porsche GT3 on Forza2 and i can't stop it fish tailing yet if i'm using the controller its grand!

IT's harder but more satisfying to use than the controller. Stop overdriving

Got one and think its excellent but have it mounted to a race seat setup as I couldn't use it on my lap.

I use mine on my lap. No problem with fishtailing on Forza. You just need to practice more

I use it on a seat/mount setup and I was inside the top 50 drivers setting times on the official Hot lap champs on Forzamotorsport.net

It takes a bit of practice but once you get it you will be faster.

As already said take a bit of getting used to but far more enjoyable than a pad for racing. Need it mounted though IMO.

You'll never win any races facing that way
