I have the SRP pedal. It's a million times better than OEM. I was almost expecting it to be a little too wide on track, but with proper driving shoes I never once caught it by accident while braking.

I have the SRP pedal. I attached it at an angle, putting it even closer to the brake pedal. It's ugly, but downshifting is 100 times easier. SRP is cheaper than Cusco, and the install basically involves screwing it down. You could even do it over the stock metal pedal.

Another vote for the SRP pedal. I've had it few weeks and it definitely helps me. I sit with my knee out which means my foot is at the opposite angle to heel and toe. So I left side/right side. The SRP brings the pedals closer but still easy to drive in my size 12/13s.

I cannot turn my knees inwards without some pain. I just break with the left side of my foot and then blip with the right. Super easy. SRP! SRP!

Hi CSG Mike. Greetings from South Africa.
I'm an old fart of 62, who'd never been on a racetrack until 2 years ago. Over the past two years I've occasionally asked you for advice which you've always given willingly, and which has proved very helpful to me. Thank you very much. Here's a short video snippet of me on track, and I was wondering if you have any comment about my technique - http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...&postcount=500 And as a thank you, I'd like to share this short video which I put together to celebrate 25 track days without any serious incidents, accidents, or mechanical problems (ie no crash boom bang). I have no doubt that your advice along the way helped to achieve that [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MrLeumMKgU"]Red Star 2015-11-29 Crash Boom Bang - YouTube[/ame]

We like the dual Radium, but the Cusco works as well. Both are in stock. Make sure all hoses are well clamped; vacuum leaks are super common when not installed well. |

Also, you have clean lines, but are still leaving time on the table. If you're not hanging 2/3 of the tire off the track, you can still go wider, and carry more speed. |

When I look at the "Got a track related question?" link, and the last post is by CSG Mike
Hey @CSGMIKE, can you give your opinion on aero? Specifically splitter/diffuser combos such as the Velox pieces, also Voltex rear wings. The when, what, why, and how?
