Quote: If the pedal was meant to hit the floor then there wouldn't be a standard shift car with any carpet left under the clutch pedal. It's supposed to stop before it reaches the floor but not by much. All the pedal needs to move is enough to release the clutch fully anyway.
If so, what stops the pedal?
And, yes, you will find marks in the carpet where the pedal arm touches it occasionally, savvy drivers don't push it down all the way.
