Modifing your throttle pedal

Just learing the basics like proper hand placement,proper seating position, weight transfer,learning the proper apex, breaking points and heel and toe downshifting. The last one has me puzzeled.

In a late model Spider the throttle pedal is higher than the brake peddel at full braking. I have read that you can modify the throttle peddel by adding a block in my case I took a peice of metal and bent it so when I am brake the throttle pedal is level with the brake pedel. So I can just slide my foot over to goose thr throttle,

Do anyone else modfy their throttle pedals?

Do you think I am getting ahead of myself for my first time on the track? I do drive a 5 speed for my every day driver and I have modify that cars throttle so I have time to work on it before the driving event.
