Anyone know of a web page with instructions on how to split my pedal
axis on my T1 pedals so that I can use brake/gas simultaneously?  I
happened upon a web page awhile back that showed exactly how to do it,
and how to add a switch so that you can go back and forth between
split/non-split pedals, but I lost the bookmark.  Any help would be
appreciated.

It's pretty easy. Make sure you've installed Thrustmaster ProPanel - this
contains the TF1 separate pedals definitions. When the computer is off
flick the switch on the pedal unit to separate. Boot up. Go into Control
Panel/Game Controllers. Add controller Thrustmaster Formula Pro w/separate
pedals. Configure it either in Game Controllers or Thrustmaster ProPanel.
Then use it in the game. Not all games support separate pedals but F1RS
does - you'll have to configure it to do so in the game by selecting
different axes for brake and accelerator. The down side is that you have
to go through this procedure every time you need to switch between the two
modes.

You must be thinking of the Nascar Pro as the T1 and T2 didn't have
the built-in switch, but I'm sure I read somewhere that it is fairly
simple to rewire these and add your own switch.  Thanks anyways for
the info.

Sorry - Thrustmaster rename their products for the UK market so I always get
confused as to which is which. In the UK the Thrustmaster Formula 1 racing has
the switch.
