Thanks for the feedback guys.
For those still interested, there is also a pretty good blog (www.goodworkmatters.com) that makes similar profiles for different games. A very cool post on Dead Space 2 just came out, that gets into the advanced features and also takes advantage of the very cool DS2 art.
There is also a giveaway on their Facebook page, www.facebook.com/fragpedal, if anyone wants a pair but doesn't want to part with the cash. Good luck!

My footpedal configuration with slightly less awesome background skins: http://www.giantbomb.com/dirt-3/61-30383/i-optimized-my-footpedals-for-dirt-3-not-bad-w-pics/35-497958/#4
@zameer: Actually I use the Fragpedal more for FPS than anything. In pretty much any game I play, there's always controls that aren't very convenient to hit on the keyboard, so I map them onto the pedals. Obviously in racing games it's extra fun to put gas and brake on your feet (plus the Fragpedal, I think, at $79, is much cheaper than most driving pedals), but it's useful in other games as well. For The Witcher, for instance, I've mapped the combat actions (attack, dodge, change combat style, cast) to the Fragpedal. It's another fun configuration, since the combat system in Witcher is so timing-oriented. I could post some pics of those configs as well, if you're interested
I took the liberty of using one of BestUsernameEver's wallpapers as the background in the configuration screen. Comments?
I don't know if anybody has these, but I set up a configuration for DiRT 3 on my Fragpedal and wanted to show it off. Basically the pedals are programmable to any keyboard key or macro, so I tried out a few configurations for DiRT 3 and took some screen shots of the set-up in the configuration software.
Configuration: Basic
Configuration: Authentic Gear Shifting
To more closely imitate real shifting, I put an advanced macro on the left foot, so that while pressed would listen for particular keyboard presses, in preparation for another command. This simulates the clutch. Holding it down, it listens for ‘q’ and ‘e’. If ‘e’ is pressed with the clutch down, it upshifts (a); and if q is pressed, it downshifts (z).
Configuration: Camera Controls
What do you guys think? I custom-mapped the images on the software because they were the best ones I could find. Best Username Ever's pics looks pretty sweet too though
