Asetek SimSports Forte to Invecta Pedal Set Upgrade Kit

 

Upgrade kit from Forte® Sim Racing Pedals to Invicta™ Sim Racing Pedals with THORP™ Hydraulic Brake System

Increase the performance of your Forte® Sim Racing Pedals and transform them into the Invicta™ Sim Racing Pedals system with the industry-leading THORP™ (Twin Hydraulic Opposing Rapid Pistons) hydraulic brake cylinder. This upgrade brings the ultimate race car experience to your pedal set, with a harder brake pedal for faster and more efficient braking techniques< /strong> that help you improve your performance.

What is the THORP™ System?

The THORP™ system offers the most realistic braking system for sim racing. The hydraulic braking system simulates the feeling of a real racing car braking system in two stages:

  1. The Soft Phase:
    • When you apply pressure to the pedal, the pedal moves approximately 10-20 mm as the caliper pistons move toward the disc move and push the brake pads against the disc. This simulates the phase in which the backlash in the mechanical system is compensated.
  2. The Hard Phase:
    • As the hydraulic pressure builds, you will feel a solid stop, like pressing against a wall. In this stage you push against the hydraulic fluid which is incompressible, resulting in a hard brake pedal. This feeling corresponds exactly to the braking system of a real racing car.

Benefits of the THORP™ system:

  • Realistic and Hard Pedal Feel: The system offers the "hard brake pedal" feeling of a real racing car, where you muscles work directly against the hydraulic pressure. This allows you to brake later and harder, which is crucial for faster lap times.

  • Improved Muscle Memory: The hard pedal helps your muscle memory< /strong> so you can refine your braking technique and react more quickly to braking zones, which is essential for precision and consistency.

  • More Control and Faster Response: A harder brake pedal< /strong> allows you to reach full braking force more quickly, leading to faster reaction times and more control when braking.

  • Adjustable Hardness: The system has adjustable initial hardness strong> for the brake, so you can tailor the pedal feel to your preferences and recreate the feeling of a racing car.

Technical Specifications of the THORP™ Brake System:

  • Hydraulic Brake Cylinder:

    • Twin Hydraulic Opposing Rapid Pistons (THORP) technology.
    • Integrated automotive-grade pressure sensor.
    • Forged aluminum for a strong, durable brake cylinder.
    • CNC machined details for a premium look.
  • Pressure sensor:

    • Measures 0-100 bar and can repeatedly measure 100 bar withstand pressure, which is equivalent to 180 kg of force on the pedal surface (like a real F1 car).
  • Elastomers:

    • Interchangeable elastomers for pedal hardness adjustment.
    • Physical stopper and expansion chamber to not overload the elastomers and maintain the perfect race car feeling.
  • Adjustable Preload:

    • Manual adjustment of the preload to simulate the ideal distance between brake pad and brake disc.

Box contents:

  • THORP™ Hydraulic Brake Cylinder
  • 2 Spacers for brake cylinder
  • 2 Pigtail brake cables
  • Dark green elastomer (for the soft phase)
  • Performance grease for optimal operation
  • Invicta™ front panels (for mounting)
  • 6 M5x12 screws for mounting

Why the THORP™ Upgrade?

The THORP™ hydraulic braking system provides an unparalleled realistic braking experience that mimics the feel of a real racing car. Instead of simulating a braking system with a load cell (which only simulates pedal movement), the THORP system provides actual hydraulic force that further enhances the experience .

  • Higher performance: It gives you the ability to brake later and more powerfully, which is essential for top speeds and concentration in your race.
  • No compromises on quality: This upgrade uses the same advanced technology platform like the Invicta™ pedals, giving you the highest quality strong> benefits.
