Velocity Throttle pedal position
At the moment my throttle pedal sits in front of the brake and is in a bit of an uncomfortable postion.
How has any one else fitted thiers and whats the best way to alter the postion?
The pic shows how it is at the top for reference.

Try adjusting the throttle cable so you have more slack in it , this will lower the pedal to a more comfortable height . If cable has insufficient
adjustment bend the pedal . Fit a pedal stop as well so that you don't strain the cable when you have full throttle..

Drill a hole below the throttle cable in the upright part of the bracket, and Put a LARGE bolt through, Bolt Head on (against) the pedal side. Secure
with two nuts either side of the bracket. Adjust the length of the bolt for instant and adjuatable Pedal stop mechanism!.

Ha Ha!!... neither do I... I saw it on another locost..
I visit the shows, and look at the builds and see what I dont and do like.. and pinch ideas!..
I have built two land Rovers from scratch. however, this build is harder, as there are no set places or plans.. you just do what you think is right.
hence I took a lot of piccies of the Luego Demonstrater and have them in my archive (on here) just for ideas, and to see where they put bits, and what
they did. I am sure that everyone will help each other... thats what the forum is for.
