It is with much regret that I announce, after five years of faithful service, my G27 completed its final lap with nine minutes remaining in last week's race at Mosport. Funds are tight right now, and a new wheel and pedals for sim racing is unfortunately not high on the priority list for now. That means I am out for the whole season more than likely, maybe longer. I felt like I was coming to terms nicely with the new suspension update across the service and with this car and was planning to start up the tech shop this week. Such is not the case however. Unless someone wants to be my data acquisition car, I will instead be writing articles in the tech shop concerning setup theories and troubleshooting, which I believe will still be useful? My best wishes and regards to my fellow competitors on a great and successful season! Wish my wheel could've held on for nine more minutes so I could pick up my first win

Sorry to hear that Brian. If it's a foot pedal issue I might have some parts you can use. Or, if your tossing the hole thing out please consider contacting me. I'm pondering several options to assist physical challenged racers one of which is a wheel graveyard/parts exchange. I'd cover the shipping. I might be able to fix it with other spare parts, fit hand controls on it, and get it out to someone fairly cheap.

Another option if it is only the pedals you need, is to look for just a set of pedals. I have heard of quite a few people with G27 wheels that like the wheel and want to upgrade their pedals. They usually get a set of Fanatec CSR Elite or Clubsport pedals for the load cell brake. So they probably have an extra set of G27 pedals collecting dust which they would sell for cheap. A good place to look would be on the iRacing hardware forum. Just create a post saying you are looking for a set of G27 pedals and see what happens. Definitely couldn't hurt.

I'm glad Troy mentioned that because I totally forgot that I have the ClubSport V2 pedals and that means my G27 pedals are just sitting in my Fanatec box. If you're interested in them let me know.
