Hopefully they'll put a bit of effort into the pedals. Any pics? Mitch -- "Don't pee on my leg then tell me it's raing".

Don't think so, this is the production version. Slightly odd decision considering the dfp has lots of buttons. No problem for me as I have space for the shifter and can't cope with too many buttons anyway :) Cheers Tony

Plus the real racers are putting more buttons on the wheel all the time, not less. Theres probably a wiring advantage to not doing it though.
It looks sweet, the pedals are my main concern. Also has anyone had problems with this type of paddle shifters? I've had MSFF wheels since they first came out and have yet to have a problem (other than the rubber grips) Why not use an optical sensor instead of normal off the shelf pot's?

I'm getting the feeling, looking at the pics that it shares some DNA with the original act labs pedalset. Which doesn't thrill me too much .... let's hope they actually carry the ball all the way to the touch line , rather than fumble it with ten yards to go. A free sporting analogy ... jv

Yeah, bugs me a bit too. Logitech has this uncanny ability to fix one thing, then screw up something else that was fine in the previous model. Happens every time it seems. -Larry "mcewena" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Thrustmaster Rallye GT still shown as "Unavailable" on Amazon. What is with these hardware companies. It never used to be like this. -Larry "Mitch" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:bwjhg.40587$[email hidden]...
