One bloke I know told me he drove his 911 in bare feet . Not much fancy being in the next seat with the heater on PHEW . Claimed he got some odd looks when he filled it up with petrol .

I'm six three tall and I find the only way I can get my left leg comfortable is to have it, almost rotated on it's side, wedged in between the clutch and brake. ( Not safe to have it there I hear the replies!  I anticipate ahead............... ................waaaaaaay ahead Tha ideal shoe for me is a pair of espadrillos. Thin cotton canvas uppers and thin sole for maximum feel of the rolling ball in the accelerator on the sole of my foot. Not sure what acupressure points there are there but..........feels goooood!

Neil. Neil, have you tried a steering wheel spacer? I had the same problem with clutch foot / legroom and a 25mm spacer has made a world of difference. I can now rest my clutch foot on the floor in front of the clutch instead of having to rotate and tuck it away.
