Default Pedal bending!!

So I took the roadster out for a blast last night, popped my foot on the clutch approaching the roundabout an dipped the clutch, only for,the pedal to,deform and drop she hind the brake pedal!!!

Fortunately I was able to coast to safety and free the pedal off and get home I'm NOW going to remake my brake and clutch pedals in 5mm plate rather than 3mm and I'd urge anyone making there own to avoid 3mm plate for the reasons of what happened to me!
