I would have to say that if you for some reason really can't buy a wheel, either because of the cost, because of the space it takes on your desk, because your parents/girlfriend/wife/boyfriend/husband would kill you or some other reason you might want to consider a gamepad with analog sticks. It won't give you the realism of a wheel, but it will give you the possibility of driving with basically the same controls as for RC cars.

Obvious advantages over mouse driving:
* Throttle/brake separated from steering, with both still being analog
* Steering returns to center if you let go
* Plenty of well buttons within reach

(The controls are of course less intuitive and more sensitive than a wheel, so really, if you can get a wheel, do so.)


An example of a good gamepad that would work is the Logitech RumblePad II, but I'm sure you can get away just fine with something cheaper.

Yes, it would be great if some hosting solution could be made.

To me it seems that Google Video or Youtube (or some other free media hosting such as putfile) should work well enough?

That way no single person on here has to provide the bandwidth...

Another possibility would be to use bittorrent for the distribution...
