I just don't see why the hell not? Great pedal positioning for a great driving experience! With a proper racing seat and a proper steering wheel and shifter, it's a necessity to have a great set of pedals don't you think?

Pedal placement is usually limited by space so not many ways to change it up unlike seats and steering wheels. When I raced Micro Sprints I spent a ton of time getting the seat mounted and adjusted in just the right spot, Steering had a little adjustment (up and down) but was never my concern because it always was pretty close after setting the seat. The most I have done with pedals is replace or remove the pad so that my foot wouldn't slip off of it.

I added grippy pedal covers to my Camaro and Corvette. Ran a spacer on the gas pedal to raise it for years. Just recently I replaced the pedal assembly and found that mine was bend down, so omitted the spacer on the replacement pedal assembly. Makes it easy to heel/toe on the downshift. The covers are made for the 4th gen, so they're contoured to match.
I made an oversized gas pedal out of aluminum and covered with grippy floor mat material. The larger size is to heal-toe (or more like ball of foot on brake and side of foot on the gas). Works good for my non-actual racing needs.
Mine are the pyramid grid pattern. They look like SRP, but I could swear I got them made by someone else. They're great, I couldn't race the way I do without them. I've driven other f bodies on track and without the pedals the cars are just more difficult to live with at the limit.
