Default Yet More Fodder For The Great Pedal Debate -- Other Possible Options

Another pedal debate has ensued -- pitting one set of after market pedal covers with another. In this regard, the attached might be interesting -- real carbon fiber with a bonded titanium insert.



As to the brake pedal, however, given the potential forces upon it, the carbon fiber approach might yield a pedal that is rather large for strength. As an alternative, a titanium pedal and pedal arm might be appropriate and weighs a fraction of the original:

Robert,

When are you going to display this 993 light weight wonder you have been developing? I as I am sure others are very interested to see and hear the ultimate weight of this fantastic marvel!

Given my schedule, the earliest by which I can now do this is after February 20th. In all likelihood, however, as I will be testing parts at such race, it will be a week or two after the ALMS race at Sebring. Also, as I have mentioned before, Humpty Dumpty is not a 993, it is a somewhat individualistic 964.
