Floor mats and accelerator Do floormats take away from how far you can press the accelerator down? I think it must just because it looks as if it would. i know this was posted a month or two ago but i searched and cannot find. Help would be appreciated!
I've never thought about this in all honesty. But I've heard they're coming out with a new mod to prevent it. It's called the !floormat mod. I'll be first in line to try it out...maybe I'll pick a few tenths at the track.
I've got a foot print gas pedal that I put on every once in a while. And no, I'm not kidding. I guess you would just have to meet me and understand my personality! I only have it on for maybe 1-2 days out of the month, but it dosen't make any problems for me.

Well in my other post I was being a tid bit sarcastic...yeeaaaahh....but you're serious. Mmmm...ok. Well if you want a serious answer from me...then no. I don't be believe it possible for your floor mat to hinder full acceleration. If you're worried about this look into the bump-stop mod which will help you out much further than removing a floor mat ever will.

It shouldn't really keep the gas pedal from going all the way down. However, a few of us have had our gas pedals stick because the mat ended up on top of the pedal (how it worked up ontop of the pedal is beyond me). I just cut a square out of the top corner of the mat where the pedal depresses. Problem solved.

I take mine out every time I race. Before you grind on the bumpstop you need to check the TPS voltage. Otherwise if you grind too much it will set the check engine light.
