    Here is a foto of the back side of the dead pedal showing the multi layers of sheet metal behind the dead pedal...foto taken as from the forward end of the dead pedal...So, the Targa dead pedal is way different due to the reconstruction of Targa for extra strenghting as gled49 noted above.......cliff

    Do I understand that a "dead pedal is the same as the foot rest?

    According to racer Vic Elford, he dislikes the term`Dead Pedal.` I tend to agree.......
