[Fot] ... + racing Triumph-related question

[Kas Kastner]

Buy non-skid tape at any boat shop/store. It is cheap and sticky back for 
easy installation. Put on the pedal or even a strip on  the floor, also 
carry a small hand towel (dry) in the car to wipe your feet even on dry 
days. Back to the non-skid, try out the tape before going to the track to 
make certain you can still do the brake-throttle without your foot sticking 
to one or the other.
