While at the NEC Classic Car show last weekend I picked up a pair of these...
http://www.piloti-europe.com/products/touring/tifo... ...in grey.

I need size 12 or 13 shoes so struggle for space in the drivers footwell in the S! I was sceptical about driving shoes but saw several pairs in use during the Euro Tour so thought I'd try some on.

These fit me superbly and after a quick blast today I can confirm they make driving the S a lot more comfortable. The added advantage of this style is they look like a normal pair of trainers and do not make me appear to be some kind of trackday god wannabe when out of the car (before anyone says it, I'm NOT a trackday god wannabe!!).

If anyone else out there struggles with larger than average feet then these are worth trying wink

Cheers,
Longers

Can't say I can reccomend them but can reccomend Oakley sunglasses for when he wears them next!!

P.S. Clutch went again so only managed two tunnels but all sorted now for Scotland :-)

Liam,

Cassie told me that if I got a pair of proper driving shoes I'll be able to do donuts like you did in that supermarket carpark... hehe
