I don't think I would go out of my way to do it, unless you really wanted to. I have a crappy old GP1 Thrustmaster wheel with even older (and crappier) T-1 Pedals (same axis) and I've consistently been doing times with-in a second of the very fastest of the fast drivers on the Monza & Watties Glen demos. I wouldn't bother but I'd be interested to see if you could do find a real difference. Let us know if you do! Regards, Matt Wilson PS'z: A special hello to all you GPL'ers. Howz Nurburgring going? >Yes.

Well... If you want to always be 2-3secs off the pace minimum each lap... race in single-axis ;-) (actually, with the GPL game engine you "turn" with the throttle, so trail-braking or tapping the brakes a little while in mid-corner under acceleration is really a must and is almost impossible to do with a single-axis brake/gas pedal unit) - Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> Good race at the Brickyard! - Official Mentally retarded guy of r.a.s. - Excuse me for my English (I'm French speaking) - Sponsored by http://www.awpss.com/ on the NROS - "People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world."--

what does this do? shift weight forward and rotate the car into the corner? haven't tried split pedal setup yet, but will when I get the full game.
