Joysticks don't have pedals. Wheels come with pedals ;)

Read the Racing Wheels subforum (http://www.lfsforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=15) to search. You'd want to get the Logitech G25 that has just come out.

Now WHY would he want to find one with 3 paddles?

I can understand why someone would want 3 pedals though... It's one for brake, one for throttle, and one to pump up the airbag in a crash.

Yeah mate... You need to wait a tiny bit longer until the Logitech G25 is available to you. It's da proverbial bomb (for the hardcore budget priced wheels).

I dont know, I just thought, he could have meant it, seeing that joysticks dont have pedals. :D

I meant a wheel whith 3 pedals. I did not meant paddles. In LFS there is the cluch option .. but .. it seems weard to use a button for the clutch. what is the poin of a simulator .. if it is not 100% authentic??

you can change it to a pedal (w00t for teh 3 pedals!), just change "Clutch" from "Button" to "Axis" and assign it to the appropriate pedal and your set!

I use a joystick too for many years now... didn't find anything suitable so I built my own solution of analogue steer/brake and being able to shift and making use of the clutch even with a joystick. I've been asked about it some times so I explained it mored detailed on this page:
