Thanks, Tom,

Huge fun, and no work.  That is my kind of carrying on!

Lovely, lovely footwork...  I like the innovative way you've got the plate on the accelerator pedal 'canted over' to assist your heel 'n' toe...  that's cheating..  I must try it sometime

That's not cheating. Very nice footwork & swapping to left foot brake though.

Great video Eddie

Thank you, sir.  The foot pad on the accelerator pedal just took one more drilled and countersunk hole, easy to do and works well for me.  Easily reversible if you don't like it.

Thanks, Stew.  It is taking me a lot of laps to get comfortable with the left foot braking, but I have seen worthwhile laptime improvement. 

I do practice left foot braking 100% of the time on the street, with whatever I drive.  Seems to help some.

A skill you'll have had to learn....as your previous brakes used to be a parachute?   
Great job - subscribed to your channel & look forward to more videos.

Hi Eddie,

The angled 'foot pad' is a neat fix...  I'll have to give it a try.

Talking of footwork, I like to keep practising the "left and right foot pedalling" ...  keeps the brain young 
BTW, if you have a very bored moment...  we can compare each others 'footwork' 
Here's a link to one of my 'pedalling' videos.

Cheers,
Barry.

Barry,

I really like your video, showing the footwork, speed, position on track, etc., very informative and enlightening.  Smooth driving and footwork-thanks for posting.

I learned at my very first road race, that NOBODY would stop and wait for me to repack my parachute after the first turn--   had to learn a whole new way to slow down!
