VRS Direct Force Pro Pedals | Long Term REVIEW 

Oh wow, getting feedback from another content creator means a lot to me, thank you so much Michael. And yeah haha, they are simply fantastic, I could have made a short about it. I actually never race without shoes or socks. It's just...dunno...I simply can't 😄 so what are your special occasions then? Thanks again mate!

I totally agree! I just recently made some adjustments to them, because I wanted to improve my whole seating position a little and it feels completely new to me again. Lovely piece of hardware!

Me too, I had to adjust the angle of pedal plates, travelling way of pedals and the spring... As I am used to break hard, the red spring was my favourite 👍

@DonKev99 mine as well. To be completely honest, it would be great to have a spring somewhere in between the blue and red ones but that's nitpicking 🙂

Is there not a replacement yellow spring as far as I know🤔 But I am not sure whether it is harder than the red one or in the middle of blue and red...

@DonKev99 Really?! Thanks for that mate, will check that out 😀

What a lovely feedback! Thank you so much, I wish you a great day 🙂

Thanks a lot mate. I actually switched to the newer firmware solely for this video and it seems to be absolutely fine. The old one also worked like a charm, so I didn't have to upgrade. And yes, I love these pedals as well 🙂

Oh my, I honestly don't know what to say other than thank you so much for your kind words. That really motivates me, thank you so much 🫶

And yeah I totally agree with you in that regard. They are really sensitive and the travel of the pedal isn't all that good when simulating a more "normal" car. But that's when the blue spring comes into use I guess 🙂

@@CKSimRacing I don't like the idea of constantly changing the brake springs all the time, it's very tedious for just a few moments. (And then having to go back to the red one).

@ZetaTJ true, it definitely is a bit tedious. Especially when your whole rig is close to a wall and such. But if you have done it a few times, it's actually done in a matter of maybe 5 minutes, including recalibration. But tbh I wouldn't wanna do that frequently

Thanks a lot for the feedback mate, I really appreciate that 😀

Hey there, sorry I have missed your comment! Yeah I have also glimpsed over to the clutch but this is an upgrade for some other day 😀 I have seen the HRS faces and I think I'll give them a go since the standard faces are really smooth (depending on footwear). But even with my grippiest shoes they are quite smooth. I know, this is nitpicking on a fantastic product. So you switched to the VRS base? I'm not 100% sure yet whether to go for this one or the SC2pro...

@@CKSimRacing You can analyze from the fence, but honestly you have to go over it and get some scuffs on the jeans. Everyone tries to experience and live off of glam reviews and I find some are useful and some are not. Being experience in different fields, you have to suffer financial setbacks to ever experience it or try to experience it. This stuff takes years and social media just makes you believe everything happens instantly. Rant aside, if you search hard enough there the comments and maybe reddit and discord, there are people who own both and you find that those who have NO agenda say, save the money and go VRS. That goes with ActivePedal as well. While I have yet to try a SC2 of any sorts, I have people that I trust that state they don't like the SC2 over the original SC. I found in some few clips who try to compare them say they love the raw feeling of VRS, but somehow say oh wow SC2 OMG but kind of downplay how much the VRS punches well above it's price point. I do agree the software ability now is amazing from Simucube, but to redo a hub along with going wireless for a premium didn't seem right to me. There is no right or wrong, but at some point, bang for the buck and less BS will be more appealing after dealing with years spending money and experimenting with all the equipment. We should all be proud that variety exists, but there always is that itch to go the next step. However, at some point, you are going to find your way and see like cars, everyone's got their own way of doing things. You have to figure out what product is best for you in the end.

@klintonkacatin Mate you actually made me change my mind. I did in fact have the VRS in scope previously but somehow was sold on the SC2. Reading your comment today made me do A LOT of research and re-watching reviews that I've already watched a few times. I'm going to go for the VRS base! Thanks again for the wake up call 🙂

Thanks a lot for your feedback! Basically it boils down to what every other review stated: they do exactly what you'd expect them to do and they do it very well and reliable in every single corner without doubt 🙂👍

And thanks a lot for the sub, means a lot to me, stay tuned 🙂

This is what im stuck with deciding

@@TheRipperXGaming 😭

Hey there, I was in the same situation as you and even though I haven't tried the HE sprints I can at least safely say that I didn't regret my purchase at all. The VRS pedals are probably the best piece of kit on my simrig and I don't see why I would exchange them. I have considered the sprints but decided against them because of the elastomer brake pedal. If the VRS pedals wouldn't exist, I would have picked the HE sprints. I hope that helps in finding a decision but you can't go wrong with either, that's for sure 🙂

@MaloryTV response below, I forgot to mention you there 🙂

@@TheRipperXGaming response below, I forgot to mention you there as well 🙂

Hey there, well it's hard to explain. You can always add a bit of preload by adjusting the rod. I'd recommend you the video that I've linked in the description. If you have the red spring installed, you can adjust it so that there's about 1cm of maximum travel at the stiffest setting. The blue spring has maybe about 5-7cm of travel if I had to guess it. Haven't measured it so far. But neither of both springs feels like a normal car brake pedal I'd say. Most people seem to pick the red one because it's easier to judge the brake force. I hope that kinda helps 🙂
