WHATMAKES A
GREATPEDAL SET?
There was a time when pedals
bundled with your average racing
wheel were an afterthought, but
that’sno longer thecase. Most
competitivewheels today make a
big fuss on getting their pedals to
feel realistic and last a long time.
The brake pedal is what you’ll
find mostof that effort goes
toward. Topkits mimic a real car
with a load-cell brake pedal.
These use pressure
measurements to accurately
relay your furious stompinginto
the game.Cheapersets may try
and feignthis by using springs or
squishy foam to gradually
increase the pressure required to
depress the pedal. The best
pedals are often simply the ones
which are easily customisable. If
you can ease up on thebraking
pressureto suit your style, you’ll
2 be cruisinghappily for longer.
