I'd keep my GT Pro Performer - I had it new in 1984 and still have it today.

Everything else could burn in a fire to save this one.

New school all they way (S&M LAF). Its the only one that actually works like its meant to!

Mind you, I might have to swap between ramp and track tyres. Is that still OK?
