Hope you can get better, Guy!

I used to use a set of A1's it has/had a dual spring in the brake, the stronger one kicked in about halfway down.  It has helped heaps finding the braking point.  With a normal spring one -and  fanatec is the same - indeed it's extremely hard to find the right point.

There is the autobrake aid I heard somebody whine about in a forum thread somewhere. Maybe you can use that and then you also wont get so bored winning races too easily as its supposedly as rubbish as it should be.  ;D

Dr. Wally's telemetry says he's on the brake less than anyone else!

It would be interesting for me to send you my telemetry with the standard brake spring installed Wally to see the difference.

I did the Gteye spring upgrade previously in my G25 and it is better however I then went to a load cell from Ricmotec
http://www.ricmotech.com/Load_Cell_Upgrade_Kit_for_Logitech_G25_G27_Pedals_p/rmt-lc27.htm

It totally changes things.  Small amount of travel and a hard pedal which totally relies on pressure in the same way your
car does.  Initially you will find the pedal to be pretty hard but you soon adjust and the control over braking is much better.
Definately worth the $109 US + delivery, unless you want to buy a complete new set of pedals with load cell included for twice as much.
Little update to this.  Ricmotech now has a V2 upgrade which includes a different spring, rubber damper and electronic chip which supposedly give the pedal more travel/feel.  It was only $19 plus delivery, I have ordered it and will update once it arrives.
