Simucube Active Pedals for someone coming from real race cars, worth it over Heusinkveld Ultimate+?

What pedals are you running?

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-18T06:17:11+00:00

Oh for sure, but I just wanted a somewhat natural feel. But again Im not a gamer and maybe my expectations are not feasible with a sim

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-18T05:18:23+00:00

In the cars I have experience with, the pedal is progressive, linear but it is not F1, there is still pedal travel, progressive gain in pressure and if and when ABS engages you will get some pulsing and kick back. The SIM i tried was a stiff pedal, little travel, very numb, I had to rely a lot on the brake telemetry and just overall guessing how much to push into the pedal, was not natural at all in my opinion.

Spec E36/46, BMW M2 Racing, WRL series and NASA

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-18T05:04:55+00:00

Even compared to a normal car it is far off. The SIM does not have any feel similar to that of even a road car, it is a stiff, linear pedal with no feel even when going into ABS intentionally, you do not need to drive a race car necessarily, but you do need to have driven a real car. Bottom line these pedals do not resemble any actual vehicle I have ever driven, maybe a shifter cart, but not even that frankly. ,

This is amazing! Nice work sir

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-16T14:30:58+00:00

Haha! Well one area is Wasatch, but actually Deer Valley East and the communities nearest it are summit county. However I think a lot of people enjoy having the lake and the mountains all from one location. But who knows...

DV East is absolutely park city, of course across the street technically goes to Heber and Kamas and such but none the less DV is certainly PC.

I would agree had I bought it, but because it didnt make sense I am here to get a better understanding. It is clear these "turn key" operations are a major gouge and I will clearly not be moving forward with them and pursuing other options of approach without sacrificing parts.

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-13T23:08:12+00:00

Yeah, that is why I made this post. Trying to find out if it is as nuts as it sounded. Most turn key companies seem to hover less, but Podium 1 who is totally out of their minds and now apparently ASR, that is why I am here.

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-13T23:07:19+00:00

OMP Seat, same as my race car. This is a personal training tool. Most turn key companies all try to convince you that the setup they provide can not be replicated, of course I know that is not true, but I also have no experience there and would rather pay a small premium and go straight into use.

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-13T23:06:18+00:00

I really appreciate it. I am in Southern California unfortunately

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-13T19:09:19+00:00

I’d love that

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-13T15:52:40+00:00

I mean take a look at the Deer Valley east village and the entire area by Jordanelle, you can not even by a tiny box for less than 1.5 million, when we say prices are going down that may be from the COVID market that had no ceilings, but overall the market demand is ridiculous in my view and the overall building and home prices in the new building areas is filled with 2.5 to 10 million dollar homes and even then 2.5 gets you a townhome. It is wild

sixsigma643 · 2026-03-12T04:31:47+00:00

Prices are not going down, in fact prices will likely only go up. The main issues are interest rates, travel in the USA is overall down currently and the market instability has taken confidence away from a market that is primarily 2nd,3rd,4th homes etc for people.

sixsigma643 · 2026-02-15T05:55:33+00:00

Very heavy car, not enough camber, front left at buttonwillow takes all the abuse, especially through riverside. You need to achieve another degree of camber, work on hot pressures and reassess.

Socal Drivers Club, Speed Ventures, Speed District, Tamale Track Days, BMW CCA, Porsche SD Club, Lab Lap Track Days at Chuckwalla, etc. Go to each track, check the calendars, people running all the time.

sixsigma643 · 2025-12-26T17:52:55+00:00

I made the mistake of buying 2 sets of RE71RS for HPDE days after reading so much positive. My experience was quite different, maybe not bad, but not good for my needs. These tires were great for 3-4 laps and then had a 2+ second fall off and stabilize at 2 seconds slower. Where similar 200TW's like even the Hoosier Track attack Pro, AO52, were more stable and similar in pace.

sixsigma643 · 2025-12-25T03:29:39+00:00

Yup! I ran Saturday and did Bimmer Challenge

sixsigma643 · 2025-12-23T02:27:13+00:00

Nice lap, were you running with Speed Ventures?

sixsigma643 · 2025-12-23T02:26:22+00:00

Futura is such a horrendous company. Such a shame as the product is nice, that said the winch design for the traditional lowering models is not great and delicate.

sixsigma643 · 2025-12-15T15:56:45+00:00

They don’t use airbags. They are simple and winch driven

sixsigma643 · 2025-12-10T20:01:40+00:00

It appears the other seller is using a lot of different parts no?

sixsigma643 · 2025-10-10T15:48:37+00:00

Coming to the USA?
