I use driving shoes when on the track, but in normal driving, boots it is.
I tend to wear them a lot... just ask anyone who knows me.
So, yes. I was serious.

I sometimes find it difficult to tell when some of you guys are joking.
Is anyone not wearing driving shoes in their Pantera then modifying
pedals to suit their outfit?
