Clutch more left?

I was wondering if anyone else ever thought the clutch was a bit far to the right. I know that the spacing between the pedals is supposed to be linear but I find that my leg would be happier with a bit more space between the brake and clutch. Am I alone? I'm not even big so I would imagine larger people have to feel what I mean. I'm 6 foot 180lbs so I fit comfortably but maybe I just have stringbean legs or something. Anyone else feel like this and counter it by moving the seat or something?

This has always been my solution.
Or something like this.
My last fun car was a 1970 Fiat Spyder, all three pedals resided in the same 12" space it seemed like. :-)

Yes, I've often thought that. When I'm stopped at a light, I often re-position my left foot to center it more on the clutch pedal.

I don't know why ..... ?? Maybe it's a throwback to when clutches came out of the floorboard ..... lost a bunch of ya there ... huh....

Anyway, I'm getten used to it.
