    So what's the fourth pedal, to the left of the clutch pedal?

    Oh, wait! It doesn't have a pivot, so I think it's a foot rest, a dead pedal?

    Yes, a dead pedal.

    Cool picture. Does anyone know why the throttle pedal is so long?

    I think it's better for "Heel and Toe" driving, that you don't have to rotate your Foot too much, to be able to push the Throttle Pedal with the Heel.
