Has anyone had a chance to try these out?  I am thinking about buying a set
but I would like to hear some opinions on them before I shell out $80

Btw, PLEASE reply to me via email.  For some reason my news server is only
getting about 1/4 of the messages right now (been that way since Friday) so
I am afraid that I would miss some of the replies

Thanks

Cliff,

Took a while to get used to them, and the clutch pedal sits unused by
itself, but they are fabulous.  The travel is quite long, but once you get
used to them, they are extremely precise.  I'd wish for a bit more
resistance in the brake pedal, a bit further up its travel.  Outside of
that, no complaints, and I would highly recommend them.

Get the shifter while you're at it :)

Rick

   I agree with Rick. I use the clutch for starts in GPL & it seems to help
my consistency. I've put a flat headed bolt below the throttle to limit
travel to where I want it. The brakes are the biggest improvement I think.
Overall I'd say they have shaved some precious 10ths from my lap times.

Cliff,

I too would agree with the other users opinion.  If you have the original
Act Labs pedals these are a 200% improvement!  It does take a little bit to
get used to them but the investment is worth it.  It is about time the
pedals caught up to the "quality feel" of the wheel.  I also agree with
Rick, get the pedals while you are at it.

Hello,

FYI, we are coming out with a tweak kit for the Performance Pedals
with Clutch.  It will allow you to adjust the throw and resistance on
the pedals.
