This is the "perfect" way to do it. Left-foot-break to Heel&Toe and back to left-foot-break. Problem is, it's so hard that you might lose grip while doing it and that would make you slower, not faster. The way your pedals are positioned is very important. It's easier for me use this technique on my car IRL, because of the position of the pedals. The stock position of the G25 pedals makes it very hard to use Heel&Toe because the break and the acceleration pedals are on the same level, and it's hard to switch from Left-Foot-Break to Heel&Toe because of the tight space. Some people modified the pedals in order to make Heel&Toe easier and I will do this to. I ordered some pads and they should arrive next week.

I am aiming for Heel&Toe #2. This is how my real-life car has the pedals and I have enough space to break with my left foot and switch to Heel&Toe and I can Heel&Toe without twisting my entire foot (and thus without having any pains as a secondary effect).


My advice (conclusion): Try to modify your G25 pedals and start using heel&toe and left-foot-break.

after all of those advantages i really want to learn left foot braking...might modify my pedals...after i build a cockpit i will probably invert my pedals.
A easy way to learn it: drive a sequential/automatic car and break only with your left foot.
I don't have space for a cockpit. (btw, this smiley should be red, not blue...)
Quote from logitekg25 :.after i build a cockpit i will probably invert my pedals.

I recommend taking the pedals off the base and inverting them.

that is what i am going to do...i plan to do something like this or maybe at the least this a lot of work to be done

Nice videos thank you
left foot braking is impossible with the g25
Quote from logitekg25 :left foot braking is impossible with the g25

Why is that? I can do it just fine, as can many others

i meant left foot braking with the switch to heel toe.

Can you just use your toes?

Or you could try and find an automatic-sized brake pedal pad that will fit the G25.
dont worry about it...eventually i will weld together a nice cockpit (that girls wont think im a loser for :razz and invert the pedals in a way that will make me happy
You never raced online? What a waste of a licence

Unless you are a yetti, I don't think its that difficult. Without shoes it isn't hard, for me at least (44,5 european size) (I have a spacer mod though)

the space between the pedals is too small, but i might make a spacer mod myself...yes i know it is a waste of a liscense to not race online...my parents wont let me get a new computer (which is nescesary to go online)

what's the problem with going online from your PC ? if the game works fine in SP, it should be the same in MP.

first how is your spacer mod designed...it is hard to make one out of wood which is my main recorce and my computer on LOWER THEN LOW graphics has about 15 fps, and with any ai, it just freezes and crashes my computer. before i took away the sky, and trees, i could not change view without crashing or view replays...this is not very surprising because when my mom bought it, it was a bottom of the line computer, and it is a 2003, gateway :haha:
