Pedal issue
For the first time I had all 3 of my pedals in 'neutral' positions and I discovered that all is bit well. It appears there is something in
the way of mr foot travelling freely between brake and accelerator, going to have a proper look tomorrow as was only meant to be putting the lawn
mower away before going out and was in there half an hour.
Whatever it is I hope it can be moved or cut out as there us no room to move the pedal over and it could mean size 11s are just too big for the hood

Whatever you do, ensure that there is no chance of the accelerator ever jamming down in a 'foot to the boards' scenario! I goosed my

size 11's do go into a hood.....
you will find that if you dont carpet all the way down the tunnel, you can use the side of the cockpit as a rest for your right foot when on the
throttle....
mine has witness marks off my shoe from doing this
it gives you vital space for the other 2 pedals
I'd love to give my imaginary friend a great big hug,
but this jacket makes it impossible.

Panic over. Had a proper look as tried sitting in again. seems I had the accelerator further forward than I thought so it wasn't the steering
column it was the acellrrator it self. Set the pedal back a bit and all good now.
