intresting theory..., gas pedal Options

[Griff]

ok, im not an expert...ok i am nowhere close to being one at cars...but.
i was attempting to practice heel toe shifting in my car today, while it wasnt running:
-problem, gas pedal is to far away from brake for my foot
but as i was down there checking it out i noticed when the pedal was all the way down...it hit carpet/mat...and i thought if the carpet wasnt there would i get that much more out of my throttle? or does max throttle get exceeded before hand? im curious, cause if so, im going to be doing some modifications to my drivers mat....cause thats 1/4 inch...and it may do somthing. can someone tell me if im being stupid or not?
thanks

nah i dont think thats how it works... this is just a guess, im talking about something i dont know much about

ok i learned this from my motor scooter...

if the throttle is closed, than i think its gona look like a coin in the middle of a pipe, but when you floor it, the coin is gona go 90 degreez sideways, so that the air can rush in.

i think that flooring it anymore than what it is susposed to be will cause that flat edge to kinda give it +20 degreez which would put that coin in the pipe at a 120 degree angle, causing the same effect that having the throttle pushed in 3/4th of the way, not letting alll the air thru...

remember i learned that from my motor scooter lol, it would bog out like that

oooo damn rocket scientist here
