I'm going to combine the pedals from [link lost in import] At [link lost in import] called "RRC Pedals direct to PC adapter switch box/cable for Shared games port connection." I think that all that will do is let me connect 2 devices to the game port on my soundcard. But what I really want to do is connect the steering wheel of the logitech wheel to the good pedals from that website. I'm not familiar with the wiring of the logitech wheel, but i want to be sure that I will be able to connect the 2 together, then connect them to my game port. Because the logitech version is usb, does that mean i won't be able to connect them together? because one is digital (wheel) and the other is analog (pedal?)? Is it possible to connect the 2 together? I know I didn't make myself clear, but i hope that you guys get the picture. thanks!

I just got my RRC pedals today. Very nice. When I ordered them by email I told Nigel that I wanted to use my LWFF with the pedals. He sent me the correct adapter box. You have single or dual axis. The instructions tell you exactly how to set it up. I have the LWFF in the USB port (you have to keep the Logitech pedals plugged into the wheel) and the RRC pedals in the gameport. Guess what? This combo even works in NASCAR3. No more using the Logitech pedals for N3. whew!
Hello Adrial The Shared adapter box is not the one you need for your FF wheel. You need the adapter box for the FF wheels. Because the FF wheel is plug to the USB port the pedals will use the Games port via the adapter box. They do not need to be attached to each other to work. The adapter box allows switching between single and dual axis as well as having a button for accepting each calibration in Win95\98. I understand that the pedals from the FF unit will still need to be attached to your FF wheel but just put out of the way. A person in Australia has already done this setup himself by plugging both the RRC units and FF Units in at the same time. He will soon be receiving the adapter box some he doesn't have to have the RRC wheel unit plug in. GPL I believe can use both units at once. -- Redline Race Controls http://www.wave.co.nz/pages/lakewood/Redline2.htm Nigel of Lakewood Motorsports Hamilton New Zealand

thanks! could you do me a big favor a test that setup with other games? So far I know that GPL and nascar3 (thanks to you) work with that setup. what do you think of the RRC pedals?
