Default Racing pedals? Not what you all think

I rember seeing there are pedals you can buy that make the gas pedal even with the brake and clutch? I cant rember the brand, its so you dont have to buy a custom racing pedal setup. Ment for street cars for better heal toeing....

Anyone know what im talking about?

I know on Mustangs, there is a way to *lift* the gas pedal, so it is more even with the brake pedal, but I'm not sure if you can do that with the F-bodies that have the throttle-by-wire...

F-bodies don't have throttle-by-wire.

A block of wood cut to fit works great.
Paint black so nobody will notice. Add a strip of rough "tread" for metal bleacher steps will keep your foot from sliding off.

I bought a small nylon cutting board at Wal-Mart and used a hack saw to cut out the shape I wanted.

Predrilled 4 holes in it and used 4 short wood screws to screw it to the stock gas pedal.

It's light weight, cheap and easy.
