hey guys. I just got a new DFP Rev. B00. I love everything about it exept for the paddles are too small (solution: use the stick) and the break pedal is too light. I've heard the solution is to put a raquet(sp) ball under the break pedal. My question is how? can someone give me a link to some instructions or tell my how to do it without screwing anything up?

I will try, I have a Momo with a ball under the brake. I had a pic up on my website, but I think I deleted it.

Awe nuts, I don't have it anymore. Don't know where my camera is either. But if the DFP pedals are the same as the Momo, then you have a hole behind the brake pedal that you can cut the ball in half and just slip half in there underneath the pedal.

Oops, yea, open side down, that's important but probably obvious too :shrug: .

My last set of pedals were not condusive to the half-a-squash-ball fix, so I got one of those Bettaware dense foam door thingies you can buy that slots over the top of a door to stop toddlers trapping their fingers in the door. Slice a cube off that and stick it in place under the brake pedal. Has worked well for nearly a year now.

I used a small chunk of dense foam cut out of an RC cars foam tyre insert. I glued this in under the brake pedal a few weeks ago and it definately feels much nicer now.

I removed one of my own testicles and inserted it into my pedals, and that appears to do the job reasonably well too :thumb:
LOL, my squash/racquet ball is getting a little worn out. You think you could send me the other one? My wife keeps both of mine locked up and I can't get to them.

She keeps your squash balls or your testicles locked up?

Could be fun getting a safe or some other lockable item in your underwear, assuming your nuts are still attached to your body.

Yea, you single guys wouldn't understand. Unless it's just a married guy joke over here in the redneck capital of the world, the US.
