    FAQs about Sim Racing Pedals

    There are a few types of sim racing pedals: potentiometer, load cell, and hydraulic. Depending on your set-up and racing style, you may prefer a certain type. Here’s how each of them works:

    • Potentiometer: A rotary resistor measures the position of the pedal, based on how far the driver pushes it. They are beginner-friendly, but often wear more quickly, and offer less precision.
    • Load cell: Measures the pressure applied to the pedal, rather than distance. Better for developing muscle memory based on different levels of braking.
    • Hydraulic: Accurately mimic the feel of a real car by using hydraulic fluids — liquid or oil — in a cylinder to create realistic resistance. They are more high-maintenance and often more expensive than the other types of pedals — however, they also offer the most realism for your set-up.

    Active pedals offer an extra level of realism for your sim racing rig. Unlike a passive pedal, which only measures how hard you press it, an active pedal can simulate ABS, loss of traction, and other real-life car conditions.

    It can be tempting to disregard upgrading your sim racing pedals when trying to get the most out of your sim racing rig — but they can make or break your performance. Being able to rely on your pedals to react exactly how you expect them to when you’re moments away from beating your fastest lap time gives you the confidence to push your skills further.
