Gaming Rig Update

The location of the pedals was never quite right, with the steering wheel in a comfortable location, lots of clutch use would leave you with a sore ankle.

To fix this I moved the pedal-set back a notch and lifted it up at the front, this adds back a little of the natural angle that the pedals have, and doesnt force you to bend your ankle as much when not depressing the clutch.
