In particular embodiments of the inventive technology, an automated pedal depression apparatus may comprise a pedal depressor configured to contact a foot pedal for at least some time during operation of the automated pedal depression apparatus; an actuator configured to actuate the pedal depressor; a controller configured to control the actuator; an adjustable support that supports the actuator; a power input configured to receive power for use by the actuator; and actuator motion information communication componentry configured to communicate information to the controller about an actuator motion that is appropriate for an application. Certain embodiments may provide feedback related componentry to facilitate achievement of actuator (and thus pedal depressor) motion as desired, e.g., that which results in engine operation within an RPM range.
