I try to use the golf cart as much as possible. I noticed that the ball of my right foot hurts a little from holding the pedal down. I was just curious if this has happened to anyone else?

I'm short in stature and have a block that slides over the gas pedal to enable me to reach the pedal easier. Perhaps you could get one and then be able to reach the pedal with your whole foot instead of just the front portion.

I'm 6' tall so I have no problem reaching the pedal.

I think you might partially be feeling the classic symptoms of golf cart users. If you cut a piece of lead for the part of the foot that isn't touching, you'll see the difference as a full-fledged leadfoot.

Or you could have a cart like ours!! Apparently doesn't even need a pedal. We got a 2004 Par Car when we bought our villa and wanted to get it checked out so called Ken Spano (as recommended on these boards). Todd came, very prompt, today, serviced the cart and said all we needed was new batteries and brake lights. Ok, we expected that as batteries were more than 4 years old! After doing his service he decided to take it for a spin to check it out. Turned on the key, didn't touch the gas pedal, and away he flew, full speed until he could turn off the key and coast to a stop!! He was pretty shaken up and he unhooked everything and said not to touch it and they would pick it up tomorrow!! We're just glad he is ok and was sitting on the cart when it took off! Hope everything can be fixed before I have to drive it!

Hey wendy - Did they have to reupholster the golf cart seat or did it clean up o.k.??? WHEW!!!

That would have been a scary cart ride!
