W211 Pedal Reponse

Over on Benzworld a guy posted an interesting idea on improving pedal responsiveness.

Cheapest way to increase throttle response!! W211 E320 - Mercedes-Benz Forum

His observation is, in effect, that the initial depression of the pedal is "absorbed" by the bottom part of the pedal that moves down, introducing an unnecessary lag. And that, if you wedge something under the pedal, that lag is removed.

Thoughts?
