Exceptional Brake Feel, Punches Above Its Price!
on July 1, 2026
Posted by: Arash
After years of sim racing and experience with different pedal sets, I can confidently say the CSL Elite Pedals V2 exceeded my expectations in one very specific area that matters the most: “braking performance”!
The brake pedal is simply outstanding!
It delivers a level of consistency, control and confidence that I honestly did not expect at this price point. The Load Cell implementation feels incredibly natural, allowing precise modulation under heavy braking while still giving clear and repeatable feedback lap after lap. Compared to much more expensive pedal sets I have tried, the braking performance of the CSL Elite V2 easily holds its ground and in some cases feels even more intuitive.
What impressed me the most is how predictable the braking becomes once you adapt to it. Threshold braking, trail braking and ABS control in ACC feel extremely consistent, which directly improves confidence and race pace over longer stints.
The throttle and clutch pedals are more simple in comparison. They are not trying to be overly complex or overly detailed, and in practice they feel perfectly adequate. Smooth, linear and easy to control, exactly what you need from them without unnecessary complexity.
However, the real highlight here is clearly the brake pedal. It transforms the entire set into something far more capable than its category suggests.
If your focus is GT racing, endurance racing or competitive sim racing in general, the CSL Elite Pedals V2 are an outstanding choice. They deliver high-end braking performance without the high-end price tag.

I am new to sim racing. But order these pedals very soon after I bought the GT DD pro bundle. And I love them. Only thing I can say I miss is a harder throttle. But that can I fix. These pedals are 100% worth it. So good.

The 2 stages of the braking made a dramatic difference in trail braking and my ability to fade the brake coming into a turn
