I’VE BEEN blessed/cursed with sensitive feet. No, I don’t mean I break out in hives if I expose them to salt water or anything like that. It’s more how my tootsies interact with the pedals of a car; in particular, the middle one.

I have no idea why I’m so fussy with brake feel. It’s not like I was subjected to ritualistic sensory training as a child that set me up for a life of being overly judgemental about vehicle retardation.

So what do I like under my right (or left, I’m fine either way) foot? I like a medium-high pedal, with a low-resistance transition to a well-modulated, fulsome engagement that is consistent right through the application, and one that transitions off-brake just as nicely.

Not fussy, then.
