Have you seen the Bruno Spengler Interview? Check it out!
It's interesting to see he just uses the Logitech G27 when there are so many higher end wheels out there to use and he is still fast in the sim. Goes to show you it doesn't always take expensive equipment to be fast. Just takes practice and some talent.
