As Stephan mentioned, your pedals should only really be "lined up" when you are braking very hard. When you are just coasting to a stop at a redlight with moderate braking pressure, the gas pedal will be too far away. If it was lined up at that point, you'd be in trouble on the track when the pedal is significantly lower given much more braking force and a certain amount of fade in the pedal. Make sure you don't adjust the pedals too much for "light" driving.

Have fun learning the technique. It's one of those things that will be very awkward at first, then becomes second nature with practice.
