So here's the emulator racing cab I've been working on for the better part of a year. I've got a Logitech Driving Force wheel PCB that I hacked in for controls and force feedback, a REAL Daytona control panel with WORKING feedback motor, an L2M2 (see link below) adapter to convert the Logitech feedback signals to something the original Daytona motor can use and here's the PC specs:
E8400 Core 2 Duo CPU @ 3ghz (not overclocked YET!)
2GB DDR2 1066mhz RAM
80GB HDD
Windows XP SP1 trial (soon to be SP2 plus all the latest updates)
Hyperspin Frontend
MAME 143
Vivanonno
Nebula Model 2 emulator
Supermodel 0.2a ^_^
Here's a link to the video with the demo of how this feedback interface works:

and here's a link to the tutorial on how to make it (in French): http://www.gamoover.net/tuto/l2m2-interfacer-un-ffb-et-volant-sega-model-12-avec-un-pc-ou-une-playstation-23
Feedback works with all the Model 2 and Model 3 games and will hopefully work with MAME games once I get MAMEHooker working. Maybe someone will hook up the motor outputs for Virtua Racing in MAME one day too -_^
I have Outrun 2 installed but the steering is seriously gimped in this game plus on the PC there was no feedback and Sega never released a fix...
HUGE, EPIC 25 minute video this time, sorry if I bore your socks clean off!
