I've been working on a idea so I can downshift and feather the gas (rpm matching). it still needs a little work (re: shaping) but in preliminary testing over the last few days it seems to help. A friend and I made it from two pieces of aluminum one thin for the bracket and then a thick piece bolted and shape on the bracket. After I install it it help with the large gap between the gas and brake pedals and it 's a lot easier to give gas as I brake and downshift. As you can see it still a little crude!

 

ALOT of aftermarket pedals have this i know the onces i used in my TC had this for the cluthc and gas pedal...

 

my effort form a few years ago

 

Nice job do you use it

 

/\ yep - had it on so long i forgot it was even there till i saw this thread .
Works very well

 

^^ so does mind but yours is sure prettyLOL

Yea I looked online but nothing for the 8's

 

I used a set of OMP racing pedals......

The extra bite on the brake and clutch pedal is nice too

 

You guys can do it the easy way by just moving the pedal over to the left... you're able to unscrew it and screw it back in different holes but the screw won't go all the way down. Just buy different screws. A couple of us have done that here in SoCal.

 

I'll try that! never even thought of that, if it work great!

 

been there done that - did not move it over far enough for me ....

 

It was perfect for me, it moved it over by a good 3/4 of an inch and that was perfect.

 

I have some difficulty rotating my leg - wait till you are 50 LOL

 

yeah i have a hard time too, had surgery on my right leg and lost some muscle to to it, so i cant really rotate my foot to a certain angle

 

spot the error

 

lulz

 

my other left

 

not your third leg I hope ?

 

Imagine using three legs... you'll never have to heal toe ever again! Though... I'll probably develop a rash on my third leg or get some kind of urinary tract infection...

 

Unless you have a knee problem, just practice are pedals are pretty close to each other so they are good for heel toe. Practice it takes awhile.

 

Hey, watch the the 50 crack, I'm 53 also a few years back split my right knee cap in half.(Too much to drink and a slippery deck) LOL
HELP ME I'VE FALLEN AND CAN'T GET UP!

Old broken Farts Unite!

 

Theres a DIY on moving the gas pedal. I think its pretty old too. Some people said it might be bad to move the pedal so close to the break because in the case of an emergency you might acidentally jam the gas a lil when you hammer on that break.
