Quick solution for gas pedal for heel/toe

I see your creativity, but if a tech line inspector saw that they would likely cut the ties and hand you the lumber back. If you went that far, just take the pedal out and at least add some bolts that clamp to the OEM pedal.

Need for the addition aside as a tech inspector I more issue with many of the aftermarket “wings and bells and things” pedals that are asking for inadvertent actuation. Hit the brake and gas together and go code brown real quick. I have seen this happen from the right seat myself.

Kurt,
My concern would be if you lose one zip tie top or bottom and the board pivots under or on top of the brake pedal. Either situation could be really bad similar to what your mentioning.

I cut a piece of 3/4" plywood in the shape of a fat reverse 'L' about 12 years ago and it has been there ever since. I probably have 250 track days on it and others have added another 100. I did not tie-wrap it to the pedal, I drilled and bolted. When I first put it in, I used some of that anti-slip adhesive that you see on the edge of stairs; but that wore off ten years ago and I have never replaced it. You can actually heel-toe with your heel and your toe or you can roll your foot. Never had an occasion to experience a code brown because of it. I am sure that Kurt has seen it; although it is nowhere near as elegant as his solutions.
