Thing is, many of us with manual transmissions stive to get the pedals close enough so that we CAN hit both at the same time (with precision) for the old "heel & toe".
Well maybe you have small feet. I have a 4speed, and I have to drive barefoot. If i wear shoes or even flip flops i'm hitting gas and brake at same time.

sometime a mod is judged by the amount of effort/expense to result ratio. this sounds like a great result for minimal effort and expensee

Default Best Mod Ever?

When I first saw this, I just kinda chuckled, yea right, what could that be? So just skipped over it a few times. Finnally after seeing it rise to the top of the board, I thought, so what kinda mod could this be?

I'm glad I did! This is exactly what I needed too! A cramped right foot hitting the throttle and brake wasn't cutting it. This may be the iceing on the cake that i desperatly needed. Wrecking the car was not a option.

Thanks Dave,

Just curious. I've used the "heel and toe" sitting at a light on a hill are you using this while racing ?

Hi. I don't think he literally meant it's the best mod ever.
