Hi Alan,

I tried using a joystick for GPL.  It's tough to accellerate, brake and
shift at the same time with a joystick.  I use a T2 wheel and it
may not be what the 'fast' drivers use, but my times are satisfactory
and its realistic :-)  (Ok, some may say that having gas and brake
on the same axis isn't realistic, but that's a whole different topic.)

Jason.
