My team wants to get additional joy sticks but the manufacture no longer makes them.... has any one else been able to find them??? Or is there some rule IM missing saying that we can use any compatible kind??

I just bought two at McGlen Micro. They were black, like the kit this year. Part number is 200-502BL.

Now teams will not have any more trouble trying to obtain the same kind of joystick from the kit... last years we had to run all over the town trying to find them, and found a similar one from the same manufacturer, although the handle is somewhat different. And also wanted to use a PC sport car racing joystick due to the driver's taste, but end up modifying the original joysticks... Now we can finally use those gamming joysticks our drivers play games with!!
