Sim Racing Pedals

Sim Racing Pedals & Accessories

The XP1 Loadcell Pedal Set is Sim-Lab's adjustable sim racing pedal set, with throttle, brake and optional clutch configurations. The brake uses a load cell to measure braking force, while resistance, preload, travel, pedal angle and pedal-face position can be adjusted to change the pedal feel and driving position.

The collection also includes mounting and adjustment options for sim racing cockpits, including the Inverted Pedal Rack V2 and Pedal Slider Baseplate, plus the Sim Pedal Heel Rest, XP1 Foot Support. Together, these options cover pedal positioning, fore-and-aft adjustment, foot support and an inverted GT-style pedal layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose sim racing pedals?

Look at the brake system, adjustment range, construction and how the pedals mount to your cockpit. Load cell pedals are a common choice for sim racing because the brake measures how hard you press rather than using pedal position as the main braking input. The XP1 Pedal Set also lets you adjust resistance, preload, pedal angle, pedal-face position and maximum travel to fine-tune the pedal feel and driving position.

What are load cell pedals?

Load cell pedals measure how much force you apply to the brake, rather than using pedal position as the main braking input. In practice, you learn to brake by pressure, which makes it easier to repeat the same braking input lap after lap. The XP1 brake uses a 200 kg load cell and supports up to 100 kg of brake pedal pressure. Different springs and elastomers let you adjust how stiff the brake feels and how much it travels.

What makes the Sim-Lab XP1 pedals adjustable?

The XP1 lets you adjust resistance, preload, maximum travel, pedal angle, and pedal-face height and angle. Different springs and elastomers can be used to change the pedal feel, while RaceDirector® lets you adjust dead zones and linearity and save different presets.

Will XP1 pedals fit my sim racing cockpit?

The XP1 mounts on virtually any pedal deck, including Sim-Lab cockpits and many third-party rigs. The exact fit still depends on the pedal deck and mounting points. For additional adjustment, the XP1 can be used with the Pedal Slider Baseplate and the Inverted Pedal Rack V2.

Which accessories are available for the XP1 Pedal Set?

The XP1 can be combined with the Pedal Slider Baseplate, Inverted Pedal Rack V2, Sim Pedal Heel Rest, XP1 Foot Support and XP1 Black Conversion Kit. The Pedal Slider Baseplate can be used with a seat slider for fore-and-aft pedal adjustment, while the Inverted Pedal Rack V2 creates an inverted GT-style pedal position. The heel rest supports the back of your feet, and the XP1 Foot Support adds support alongside an individual pedal.

What is an inverted pedal rack and should I use one?

An inverted pedal rack positions the pedals so they pivot from above, similar to the layout found in many road and GT cars. The Inverted Pedal Rack V2 provides this GT-style pedal position on compatible Sim-Lab cockpits and supports a wide range of pedal sets, including the XP1. It is mainly a choice of driving position and comfort rather than performance.
