I have a question about the ACT LABS performance pedals (w/ clutch). I sim two footed, and have used CH rudders, old thrustmasters and currently LWFF. Is there enough room w/ the ACT LABS system for two footed users? It seems a bit cramped. thanks, sb

Yeah... I have no problem here either. I really like mine a lot! I think dollar for dollar they are the best pedal set I know of. (Get some extra springs though... ;) However I have never had the chance to try the pricier pedal sets. I will say that my lap times at every circuit with out question are quicker now than before I got 'em >;) Somewhere on this list there was a good work-a-round for modding the ActLabs pedals to use a different style of spring. It looked good! I just can't seem to find that link to pass it on to ya.

I like my performance pedals very much. I have had 3 different sets of inexpensive pedals over the years and the performance pedals are great! I have replaced springs more times than I can count. Here is a new spring and modification instructions. http://www.act-labs.com/scripts/proddetails.asp?Pid=506 "Pete Panaia" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... Yeah...

I just have such a hard time swallowing that they want $6 per spring to fix a factory defect.

They actually supplied me springs free for quite a while. I also broke a paddle shifter which they sent a replacement free. I don't think I would agree there was a design flaw. More likely they learned to improve the pedals from community feedback. Keep in mind these are very inexpensive pedals compared to "real" pedals. I would agree at 6.00 a spring, it would not take long to reach the cost of a better set of pedals. "Mitch_A" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ePo2c.34842$[email hidden]...
