The IFI site says that the USB Chicklet is compatible with the "NASCAR Racing Wheel".

Does anyonw want to comment on the reliability/ease of use of the USB chicklet, and in particular, does anyone have experience with the NASCAR racing wheel, or other USB wheel?
The chicklets work great. You may not be able to do everything with it, but you sure can do a lot. For something like a steering wheel though you may want to read the IFI instructions FOUND HERE and read the user manual and check on page 6 how to calibrate it than let us know if you have any more problems.
