Can I drag up an old thread please?

I'm considering this Rennline pedal:


because I can't heel-and-toe to save my life in the 911.

So I was searching through the archives.

I came across this thread:
New Rennline adj. gas pedal in 78 SC - anyone have this prob?
complaining about the height of the adjustable pedal, so I continued searching and found this thread.

My heel-and-toe method is hitting the brake with my right heel and blipping the gas with my right toes. Odd, yeah, I know, but it has worked for me in all of my other cars, and I have small feet so I can't do the inside-brake/outside-gas ball-of-foot method. Also, I find I have better dexterity with my heel than my toe, making the pigeon-toe method of braking with toes and blipping with the heel difficult for me.

Is there another method I could use to bring the top of my pedal closer in line with my brake pedal? I simply cannot reach now.

Should I get a reverse L-shaped pedal and train myself to h&t using the pigeon-toe method?

Thoughts?

Is it just me, or do these gas pedals look like Arnold in the first Terminator movie?
Man, they are hi tech.
Incredible looking.
I am sure they are great for fine tuning your "footwork."
