And the question is are you thinking of trying out for the GT Academy or just playing Burnout?

The Logitech Driving Force GT is not a bad wheel which goes for around R1500.
You do not need to use the pedals, you can use the buttons on the controller, but it does get a bit awkward.
The wheel comes with brackets, you can attach it to a desk or table, the pedals tend to stay still on their own, as long as they're on carpet
The wheel can be seen here: http://www.logitech.com/en-za/gaming/wheels/devices/4172
The Logitech G27 is pretty much the best racing wheel there is, it has everything and it is pretty close to the real thing, as you can imagine, a little out of your target price range at around R3800 or so. That'd be my choice if money wasn't an object.

I agree with Badbaker and Happy Camper! Less than 2K budget, the Logitech Driving Force GT is most likely the best bet.
I use the Logitech G27 and can recommend it to anyone. 6 Speed shifter and clutch pedal makes a huge difference for the true enthusiast.

If this is a serious question, then maybe you should spend your money on something else.

On a nice table maybe?
Has anyone got Dirt2 working with the Driving Force GT?
I updated game via Internet, downloaded about 68Mb, thus latest patches or whatever should be sorted.
The "Turn Left" and "Turn Right" options remain as per original control set up, when I select to change and turn wheel left or right nothing happens?
When I run the game, all controls on the steering wheel works 100, apart from steering left or right. The pedals also work fine.
Got it sorted
Tip to self, ensure the power plug is in all the way !!!!!
