I'm interested in the Act-Labs performance pedals, but I've noticed that over on the Act-Labs forums there are a lot of reports of them being pretty frail. People are saying it is not a question of if, but when you will break them. Can they be easily modified to be more durable? If not, any suggestions on a good set of pedals with clutch? I don't want to buy another wheel/pedal combo, however. I'm happy with my Logitech Momo. In fact I don't mind the pedals really, it's just that I want a clutch. Thanks.
I know TSW would wire their pedals in to the old LWFF. I'm not sure if they are doing anything with the MOMO, but it might be worth a shot. MadDAWG
jmho... I have had a set of Act-Labs since last October and I love them. Throttle is fine, Brake pedal is GREAT and the base is wonderful. The clutch, on the other hand, for me, is useless. I don't find I can get a "feel" for when I have the clutch slipping. In fact, it almost always feel like its analog and is either full on or off. Plus, and I didn't think of this until after getting the pedals, you really can't stall the car in either GPL or NASCAR 2002, so the anticipation of starting line flubs and pitstall exits are non-exsitent. Again, just my opinion... Michael Loos

One of the guys in one of my GPL leagues blew up on the grid. Caused some serious moments for the drivers behind him. Stuff CAN happen on the grid...<g> Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett My .sig file is in the shop for repairs... Remove SPAM-OFF to reply.
