Agreed. Hey, MidCal has had its "A Big Thanks" thread running for 4 years, and other clubs have their NAM "chat rooms". And we all know the story of "How Many Posts". Something like that might be fun to build community among us CORN nuts.

Even with my right foot all the way against the wall, it was touching the brake. I had to angle my foot to avoid it. The clutch had enough space, but no dead pedal, so I just rested my foot on it. With my left foot against the wall, there was a small gap between my foot and the brake. The pedal position is supposedly adjustable, and the brake could be moved over a little, it might allow my right foot full access to the throttle. The brake and clutch would also need to be brought out more - to facilitate my style of heel-toe. I tried to do heel-toe, it could be done, but wasn't really necessary. For some reason, any shift I made was smooth and didn't upset the car or engine. I believe he said it had some kind of racing clutch.
