Sill Kick Plate VRS Pedal

English:

A project that took me a long time for the well-known VRS pedal assembly.

I designed two versions which I called "with and without wings".

The heel guards have been tested for many hours by me and two other drivers, and from the feedback, one preferred to feel the heel delimited by the wings, while the other preferred to have the foot free because when braking he often placed his heel outwards. Personally, I prefer them with wings because it makes me sure my foot is centered on the pedal.

They screw onto the two front slots of the pedal assembly with a 5 mm thick profile.

They can be moved closer to or further from the pedal with a difference of up to 4.6 cm simply by screwing the two bolts in the desired position.

As seen in the video, the resistance is exceptional (even if mistreated with kicks).

The outer sides can be customized to your liking.

Doubts:

-Are we sure that the pedal assembly doesn't move with the two front bolts now screwed onto the heel guard and no longer directly into the pedal slots? No. Because not only can the two front bolts be tightened with as much force as you want (since there is a solid 5mm profile of the heel guard), but we also still have the two rear bolts of the pedal assembly that we are not touching.

-Are we sure that the heel guard doesn't bend while driving? No. Because through those two rear wings present in both versions, when you press with your heel, they exert force on the anchoring base of the pedal assembly, preventing the two heel guards from bending.

A project that took me a long time for the now widespread and well-known VRS pedal assembly.

I designed two versions which I called "with and without wings".

The heel guards have been tested for many hours both by me and by two other drivers, and from the feedback that came out, one preferred to feel the heel delimited by the wings and the other preferred to have the foot free because when braking he often put his heel towards the outside. Personally I prefer them with wings because it makes me sure that my foot is in the middle of the pedal.

They screw onto the two front slots of the pedal assembly with a 5 mm thick profile.

They can be moved closer to the pedal or further away with a difference of 4.6 cm simply by screwing the two bolts where desired.

As you can see from the video, the resistance is exceptional (even if abused with kicks).

The external sides can be customized to your liking.

Doubts:

-Are we sure that the pedal assembly does not move with the two front bolts which are now screwed onto the sill and no longer directly onto the pedal slots? No. Because not only can the two front bolts be tightened with all the force you want (since there is a solid 5mm profile of the heel sill) but then we always have the two rear bolts of the pedal assembly that we are not going to touch.

-Are we sure that the sill does not bend while driving? No. Because through those two rear wings present in both versions, when you press with the heel, they exert force on the anchoring base of the pedal, not allowing the two heel guards to bend.
