I came across this thread at LFS Forum, and decided to try Vain's suggestion of using the recent script system to give me a clutch pedal. http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=10956

Using a button (actually my side stick on my MOMO Black wheel) I can now toggle the left pedal between normal brake and a clutch pedal for race starts. The script toggles auto clutch also of course.

There's a bit of co-ordination needed to do the start and swap back before changing to 2nd, as I would need to press the left pedal down for the gear change which is not advisable when trying to make it a brake pedal again. Needless to say last night I messed up a couple of race starts, need more practice. Offline I seemed to get a better start 3 times out of 10, but mess up up 2 times out of 10.

Those with a G25 or VPP pedals will now tell me how useless this thread it

Thanks Gav, i'll try give this a go tonight if i get a chance.

I was too.. what's the fuss rev when in neutral with handbrake on, then when lights go green use the gear paddle to shift into first. This works just as well.
