Hey Jeff, you about had what you needed. If you can try and keep a ratio of 7:1 on the pedal and something that puts your foot in the right place. The brake pedals I make are 10.875 long from pivot to foot and 1.938 from pivot to master cylinder. 10.875/1.938=5.611.
That is why it takes some effort to apply the non assisted brakes on these things but they work well.......it wasn't the acceleration that put these things in the record books as much as the braking!
