Arrow Racing Pedals

A couple friends of mine have started a company AutoVation. They currently have begun production on billet aluminum racing pedals for several Porsche models. They told me that they can do a group buy thing on them. Go to <a href="http://www.autovation.net" target="_blank">www.autovation.net</a> to get a look at them. If anyone is looking into pedals for any other cars, they do that too. I don't have any yet, but I can tell you people are satisfied with the pedals they bought from them.

Those don't look bad at all.

I saw the RSX ones... will they be putting "944" in the same place? Also, will it have the left foot rest plate? If yes to both, you may have something there...

I'm thinking Christmas present for Matt.

Keep us posted, or email me when they are finished with the 944 ones.

BTW: Typo - it's 996 as I'm sure they know, not 966. Just may want to fix that so as not to offend those 996 owners!

The pedals are ready now, could be a chance for a group buy before X-mas as well, but I think we need to get our order in soon. I will let them know about the "966" they apparently have invented...

If I can get a rough idea of how many people want 944 pedals or other P-car model pedals I should be able to get you guys a good price. PM me or email me indicating your interest. Or, leave a message here and I can get a count without stuffing my email account too full (hopefully). Thanks

I installed OMP pedals a few months back, and am very pleased with them - no more slipping shoes on small firm pedals now - especially when it rains.

Question

Just wondering, would those pedals add more or less hp than a fart-can?

And what is the deal with the Racing, shouldn't it be rice'n?

Flame away!

I hope they at least thought of heal/toe and made the acc. wider..

I am interested also. The other ones on their site have a wider gas pedal and one for the foot rest I assume it will be the same for the 944? We need a pic!

I used a set of Momo pedals. I drilled holes in the origal pedals to mount them, after removing the rubber covering of course. Here is a picture, you can kind of see them.

Lets try this again. The reason I changed the pedals is because the old rubber covers were wearing out.

According to the website, all the pedals they make are designed for heel/toe. I don't know if race pedals are rice or not, but I've slipped off the pedals more than once in my life after rain. I'm thinking I almost need these pedals in this crappy Rochester, NY weather.

So can I get the Mini Cooper 'S' pedals in the group buy?
I've already got the AJUSA pedals in my 944.
