Thanks for the shout out. Great to hear your thoughts given your real life experience. Very valuable!

[@buzzfightbeer8023]

Yo, Will(or Tom)! Your channel has really become something to behold. Your reviews are soooo good. I know everyone thinks Barry at Sim Racing Garage is God's gift to sim racing. But his reviews are paid for and he is just so selective that I have started ignoring him. You guys, on the other hand, are immensely detailed without going overly crazy on the technical side. I have made all of my purchases over the last few years largely based on what I have learned from your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@boostedmedia]

@@buzzfightbeer8023 thanks so much for the kind words mate. It's really appreciated and I'm glad you've found our content beneficial. - Will

[@TheW8liftr]

Hi James, great to hear your insights! Just one minor correction, you claimed the elastomer you put in influences the maximum braking force you can utilize. However, due to the design of the mechanical endstop you reach at the second stage of braking, you can always reach exactly the same brake pressure regardless of the elastomer you have in there. All it does is determining the amount of force needed to overcome the first stage, in theory you could remove it completely (in that case you’d only push against the retainer spring until you reach the 2nd stage)

[@chriskross1660]

oh, nice video and gave me a little more information about this pedals. I can't wait to test them in rFactor2. I preorderd in feb. greets

[@SimRacingwithAussieStig]

Hey mate, glad to know most of your observations corresponded with my own review of the pedals. Cheers, AussieStig

[@GillesGPH]

Love your review. I’m actually searcing peddals with a high forch needed on the brake pedal. I’m a big guy 1m87 with big foots 😂 and with heusinkveld sprints i’m maxing out so easy i’m afraid to buy the ultimates. I drive a lot of iracing and acc and i drive with a really stif setup. Today i tried indycars on iracing and i crashed a lot not because of overdriving but i max out the brake pedal with my big toe figuratively speaking , i am a late braker and my reaction the speed only when i’m not holding in is maxing out the sprints to easy. Also in opposite of you i make errors when holding in my force. I maby dont need 100 bar but i do need double the force with a bit of slack when driving formula cars. I think you are gonna make me buy these pedals.

[@chuckwagon7354]

Did you carry that crate up to your room single handed! Great vid. You will defs have a unique take on the anything you review.

[@fan2hd277]

Thank you for your honest review. You are actually the only calling okt the „cheap“ construction of the throttle. But i‘m sure it can be fixed with a better spring and better matched rubber.

[@jeepld]

@@jeffreybankers3988 When did they fixed it ? Because i just bought an Invicta S bundle, and I really hoped for firm pedals ;)

[@dirtyjerz32]

Thanks for your impressions and review. Are you still using them or did you go back to the HE+?

[@happyracing3359]

Lille thing on their Audi R8, it is indeed a real car, that they drive in Denmark, seen it personaly, and its a very nice looking car.

[@karstenve]

Agreed

[@theblaznee]

Just paid for my pre-order today :). Can't wait

[@BGR_33]

Same here. Any idea how long it takes to fulfill the pre-order?

[@slickmotion5021]

When did you place your pre order. I'm waiting for my email.

[@squadleadr9694]

yea when did you order? i orderd on feb 16th and did not get the payment mail yet

[@theblaznee]

@@squadleadr9694 12th September ;)

[@squadleadr9694]

@@theblaznee holy sh1t. sep 21... i first figured out about this when the reviews on yt have been released. guess they got lots and lots preorders. (wich is cool for them ^^)

[@noahlinke2964]

What rubbers/spacers do use on your heusinkveld sprint brake pedal?

[@drivendriver]

Great video. Thank you. By any chance, have you tried other hydraulic pedals sets from Racewerk or Simtag?

[@drivendriver]

Someone really needs to do a comparison of the main hydraulic pedal sets on the market.

[@bmwM3M5M6]

Too light throttle is my biggest problem because DTM in Raceroom without traction is very difficult to modulate. It’s like: or too less gas or too much gas which means spinning constantly. So yeah a good throttle with hydraulic dampening would be driving changing for me.

[@bmwM3M5M6]

@@jeffreybankers3988 I already bought Heusinkveld Ultimates + and I’m fairly happy with them.

[@marke5174]

hmm still a loadcell design, but with all others using springs or rubber this uses a hydraulic cylinder. Be interesting jut how reliable it will be after a lot of use.

[@coolsharkracing7941]

[@Triss88]

out of interest what rubbers (no pun intended) are you using on the Sprints?

[@torbinzix1]

Great video but I'm wondering if I have a fanatec DD2 setup, can I connect the pedals with the base so I can use with the PS5?

Is this pedals work in fanatec motor

[@stoonley4]

The question: are they better than heuskenvelds???

[@robertwatts3941]

yo lets go bro they are so good

[@rolux4853]

I tested both and went for the Heusinkveld. They are more racing/engineering, while this feels more like a lifestyle/design product than anything that’s built purely for functionality. You can’t even space them like you want, that’s like Logitech pedals! They should always come individually!

[@-Ola-.]

At what pressure does the induvidual elastomers filly compress, before the end cap stops travel?

[@christiandoninger5951]

In my opinion they should Dell this Pedals With an Even softer elastomere. With the Softest Black elastomere i Need almost 40 bar pressure to get Ingo Hard Stage. Which Should be around 70kg. I almost Never get Into Hard Stage With Even the Softest elastomere…

[@Simlife101]

In all his videos he says "leave a comment if I can help I will" but never replies. So what he means is comment for the algorithm just say it bro 🤣

[@THEROGANREPORT00]

first

[@pilatman8359]

thats a completly miss understanding what the software need to have... dont need led, dont need to see pedals pictures move, dont need curved lines... BUT NEED OPTION TO SAVE CALIBRATION FOR EACH CAR....unbelivable. Another thing... they will not be compatibile for simucube true drive software. That decision will reject many simucube owners to buy it... including me, who sees first hand the benefits of one software for the whole hardware. To bad decision for Asatek director

[@BASHERSKINZ]

what do you mean they aren't compatitble?
