like many GT5 players with wheels that have a clutch pedal. many, including me expected GT5 to have a very decent clutch simulation, I know that no pedal set up for gt5 can simulate clutch grab, feedback, etc. but GT5s clutch system is very disappointing, here are some of the issues i have noticed on my g27.

1. Clutch disengages with the pedal 10% pushed in
2. Flat Shifting will cause you to be defaulted to neutral( only flat shifting while up shifting, Flat shifting to a lower gear is allowed.
3. u can't shift gears with a clutch while the drive tires are spinning out (burnouts, drifting) If u try it will default u to neutral
4. the most interesting issue is like this, i rolled my car to 50mph in first gear, clutched in, no revs, and was able to select all 6 gears, i did the same thing, but this time added revs, and every gear i selected minus the gear i was in and reverse would not go in. THE CLUTCH PEDAL WAS TO THE FLOOR AND I STILL COULD NOT SELECT A GEAR.

that's my issues with the clutch pedal. i mean u can still heal toe, double clutch, but those issues really take away from the experience.
 
Hello there!!
I think you may have better luck posting this question in SIM hardware forum, as it's chock full of guys who share your gear.
Good luck with solving your issue!! 👍

thanks for the info, i just posted this here to see if any other wheel users had the same issues
 
Hi! It's good to know that I'm not the only one having this problem, I was starting to think that there was something wrong with my wheel. Other issue I noticed is that if you have you foot in the gas pedal (even if you are only pressing 5, 10%) it will change to neutral... Now this is very annoying, I now find miself playing, most of the time, with the paddle shifters, since they work flawlessly and I don't have the problem of missing a gear during a race.

I really hope that PD improves this via a patch or does a better clutch "modeling" in GT6.
