 Driving shoes and trousers - Dave_
I had a go in a Palmer Jaguar JP1 once:

www.palmersport.com/palmerjaguarjp1.aspx

The pedals were rather close together, and I take size 13 shoes, so I had to take my right shoe off to be able to press the brake pedal effectively.

Driving someone else's 250bhp, 600kg, non-servo-braked, non-PAS, ground-effect, 7-speed sequential shift car around an unfamiliar track in the rain, with one shoe on, at (so I was told) 130mph concentrates the mind somewhat. :-)
