I find the Gas pedal is perfect once you go Panic mode on the brake!
Shoes size 9. I prefer loafers or running shoes with a narrower sole.
I find the stock Pedal set up just right on the BRZ. But then my other car has the worse clutch feel and gas delivery I ever drove.
Some one was just asking me about how I do this last week as he is finding out he needs it in his toolbox to be efficient for track days, he is triing a Cusco pedal this week..
Been using this technique since 1980. I always though my method was somewhat off but it works for me. I don’t track(yet) I don’t think about it when I need it, In every day traffic or driving not much use unless I wanna show-off in town. Come into its own with out a thought once the aggressive driver in me gets released on Offramps & real roads.
I seem to use bottom part of the arch and very bit of the heal as lever on the brake & ball for the foot below the toes. Gas pedal feels way lower on the initial touch but with brake aggressively half way down gas becomes much higher. Im using very little of the brake surface.
Side note: Due to Knee injuries in the past few months I could not perform the little twist required for thi trick. But in the past 2 weeks looks like the mobility is back, the fun returns.
Can’t see anyone attempting to be proficient at this wearing high heels!
