I swapped from the g29 to the dd1 with the v3 pedals. man what a difference the brake made. especially with the haptic motor built in.

Just bought one. Didn't make me faster but more consistent, and also it's much more comfortable

Nice explanation. It’s interesting that I’d never really considered the difference between my Logitech pedals (particularly the brake) and how they differ from the pedals in my car. When I was in my car today after watching the video it did make me wonder how I’d never noticed this fundamental difference before. Safe to say that I’ll be upgrading my pedals to some load cell ones as soon as possible

I considered fitting a small strut (like when you open a car boot (little hydraulic part) from clutch pedal (side) to the side of my base (the pedals are mounted upside onto a wooden base, its bolted to wood but pedal has no real place to bolt onto ) I tried it out temporarily fitted and it starts off hard then pushes in easier just like a real clutch (problem is until I figure out how to make the actual pedal its connected to stronger I think it will just bend then break the plastic, anyone else had success or even considered this? (Pedals are the Thrustmaster PRO T3PA )

yes, yes you should. you should get them FIRST. then get the wheel of your choosing (TM, fanatec etc) second. don't waste money on logitech. Yes they are entry level, but they are garbage compared to belt driven wheels which a only a few more dollars away. if you have the money though, go right to a DD wheel.
