Or use a B310 pedal set up. One in the shed if you need it.

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Nah it wont bolt straight up, but from what I have played around with it will work. Just need to get in the position you want and screw it onto the wheel well/fire wall, kinda were the STD B210/B310 one is mounted.

Im not coming up to CHCH for awhile now, as I am due to have another op and it will put me out of action for about 6-8 weeks. I will dig it out and give it to either Kitch or Simon and they can give it to you at Akaroa.

it was pretty easy to make. Got a bit of tube from work 16mm od and I think 12 ID. Put a long m10 bolt up the guts of it and bent it in the vice with a big bit of bar on one end. The bolt was big enough to stop it collapsing to much but small enough that I could still tap it out from the other end. Then I used part of the of the original stick I cut off that has the bend in it and turned it round to 's' it back the other way with a bolt with the head cut off welded on top.

Feels way better although now 4th is pretty much straight up and down which is a little wierd at first but its now in a WAY more comfortable position from the race seat than it was also puts it up a nice distance from steering wheel too

I can bash one up for you if needed
