Twiss doesn't have this issue as he's at full throttle everywhere! :hahaha:

Offroad I quite often rest the side of my foot against the side of the footwell, helps stop it bouncing around.

I used to have this problem but I'm fine now.

Must have just got used to it. Haven't even thought about it for years.

And guys, flat out is what it's all about ;)

I think that over time, you get used to it and either stop noticing, or just get better at keeping your foot a bit more steady (or a bit of both)...

I also do the resting my foot against the footwell trick like scottie, but then I've always done that on long journeys (as a kind of cruise control) so I guess I just do it automatically now anyway.
