pedals (again)
yes yes i've done a search but i still cant decide - ultimate, rennline, SRP?!?!?
look, i'm a novice (albeit "advanced" novice, in the blue run grp), i track for fun and am not even getting a full set - clutch maybe, dead pedal def no. and the only reason i am getting brake/gas pedals is because with the stock setup, the gap is too far for me to roll my foot on downshifting. fyi, i cant heel/toe.
thoughts? are any better/worse than all the rest? again, i know this is prob beating a dead horse, but have mercy!
thanks in advance.

Posted a week ago. Not an endorsement, just a link. I don't really 'get' aftermarket pedals. These look pretty, though.

I do not see what the problem is with the standard pedals. Porsche has offset the accelerator and the brake a bit to facilitate downshifting during hard braking, but otherwise, they are just pedals. I can't even see them until I crawl under the steering wheel to clean them.
The pedals noted by Nugget require drilling holes for installation.
Just learn to heel/toe with the normal pedals, save some grief.

Ok, I'll stab at answering the question seriously.

A Bud has the Rennline. The nice thing about them is that you can chose what 'extension' to use where on the pedal and how much to extend (within parameters of course). So for rolling the foot, you use the upper extension; conversely for stabbing the heel you use the bottom (all is apparent once you see the same). A lot of people put both on - although like Nugget I don't get that so much. Having some track experience, you know to set the same for the level of the brake pedal under typical track "use" (which is the biggest drawback to these things - getting that relationship correct; Also don't let anyone else drive it as they will prob be braking and accelerating simultaneously and wondering why they aren't slowing down any
).
BTW as i am sure you are aware there are several ways to H/T: If you cannot roll on the stock set up (like me; ie smaller or narrow foot), a highly effective method is to brake with the arch of the foot just below the ball and to swing the top of the foot/toes over to the right which locates them over the top portion of the gas pedal. This method gives good modulation of both the gas and brake pedals simultaneously. I had a hard time not increasing or decreasing brake pedal pressure (a bad thing obviously) using other H/T methods until someone convinced me to learn this method. Try/practice it somewhere safe and I will bet you will find that the foot naturally falls right to the top of the pedal and that once you are used to it the brake pressure is really easily to modulate well (as its a sensitive area of the foot) as is the 'toe-tap' on the gas.
Others can chime in .. I'd start there before laying out cash on aftermarket pedals (my $0.02).
YMMV, and be safe, of course.

I have the Rennlines with the extensions in my SC. It helps little for me. I have the brake and gas pedal adjusted so that when I brake the the pedals are even in height (I can't heal and toe normally as the extra parts the doctors put in my ankles don't allow my ankles to bend back and forth very far). I put the left edge of my foot on the brake and blip the gas with the side of my foot.
It's an acquired skill!
You just have to learn how to dance the dance.
The pedal placement is just fine and NO aids are required, just practice!
There is no "Right Way" , You can roll your foot, use your heel, whatever works for you.
