I bought the game on Saturday and found that my Wingman Extreme was
not the ideal control so I figured a Gravis Gamepad might do it (I've
played the game on 3D0 which has a similar controller).  I rushed out
and bought one just before the stores closed and found that it wasn't
much good either.   

I originally started playing with the keyboard, and I've gone back to
it.  I seem to get much finer control out of the keyboard.  I still
haven't gotten on the top 10 lists though.   Oh well, practice.....
