I enjoy playing large vehicle simulators, but they become difficult to manage when going over 70 mph. My existing keyboard forces me to use kickdown whenever I need to speed up. Would it be possible to switch to an analog keyboard so I can accelerate smoothly without the kickdown?

Consider using a real steering wheel instead.

You're asking about the meaning of "analog keyboard." If the game allows controllers, you can set up any trigger-like input to mimic a gas or brake pedal. If you're referring to a mechanical keyboard with a pressure-sensitive key that responds before full press, that's digital, not analog.

Some keyboards feature keys that respond proportionally to pressure or movement.

I think those could function as triggers or pedals. But because it's such a specialized area of technology, using a controller might be the more practical option.
