Using Clutch in GPL

1 post by 1 person · 04 May 1998 - 04 May 1998

I read a few weeks ago folks discussing adding a third pedal to their control sets. All I can say is "do it". I built my controls with a clutch pedal right from the start but had not wired it in. Now since getting and running the GPL demo I have made the effort to wired the clutch pedal pot into the joystick port. All I can say is "AWESOME!" I tend to spin out a fair bit in GPL and it sounds really cool as I try to get the car corrected I have my foot on the clutch and the engine is still idling over even as I am spin around in 360's. From a stand still dropping the clutch at full rev's is more controllable than just jamming it in gear at full rev's. It will stall if I don't give the engine enough revs, and it's a simple foot the clutch to refire it. Starting from the pits it's in 1st gear, hit the gas, drop the clutch and burn ***. I hope this code makes it to Nascar 3 Papyrus.! GP2 also went well with clutch. -- NOTE: Remove the "remove" from E-mail address to reply.
