In this video, André Eriksen (CEO of Asetek) talks about the brake cylinder in the Invicta™ pedals from Asetek SimSports™. The throttle and clutch are important but having the right brake feeling is essential for authenticity in sim racing.

The brake cylinder in the Invicta™ pedals is called T.H.O.R.P.™ which stands for Twin Hydraulic Opposing Rapid Pistons. T.H.O.R.P.™ is a patent-pending design, engineered to give you the most realistic experience when you sim race!

A hard brake pedal will allow you to brake later.

Imagine having a brake pedal with 5cm of travel versus a brake pedal with almost zero travel. You are going 300 km/h down a straight. With the long travel brake, it will physically take you perhaps 1/10 of a second to reach full braking power. If you have three hard braking zones on a track, you will lose 3/10 of a second each lap.

The Top 10 in F1 or GT3 is frequently determined in way less than 3/10 of a second. The conclusion is that we at Asetek SimSports have developed the Invicta pedals to replicate a real race car. Why?

Because it is the fastest but may not be what feels the best. It is your choice whether to be the quickest or have a brake pedal that feels soft and comfortable.
