Considering doing road course work next summer. The 4th Gen brake and gas are not really ideally set up for heel-toe shifting...what are you guys doing to improve this setup? Are you just replacing the pedals with sparco's or are you totally modifying the the assembly...or is the fact I've never worn race shoes throwing me off and this setup isn't as bad as what I thought?

I actually bent my gas pedal over and up. To get it to raise I just bent more "L" into the assembly. with the Harrop intake the throttle responds very quickly which is really nice when you want that quick rev match. I learned back in the early 80s from a local rally driver and have done it ever since. I do not even really think about it. My 89 Formula had a nice feel and pedal location from the factory. Luckily I have a pretty wide foot. In the 80s I used to like driving with Desert Boots which were popular at the time. They were wide with a thin sole and only a small heel. Now I always look for shoes with a thin sole and rounded heel for a casual shoe.

Is that an actual ITB Harrop, or is it the sheet metal with the individual runners into a common plenum type Harrop??

That (rally) driver's last name would not happen to be Sprongl, would it? (I don't know what part of the great northland you are from. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dunno.gif) )
