blipping the throttle is rev matching while doing the down shift.

how can you be maximizing the braked with the ball of your foot while on the throttle, that is over working the brakes.

double-clutching is obsolete in this car. H/T was always be a valid technique.

using your left foot is just another option. If you are bored enough to watch NASCAR (or is it crashcar?) you will see some of the better drivers h/t with both feet. clutch/brake, brake/gas. it is like watching a tap dancer on crack.

I didn't take offense at you size comment, but I figured some might. Peace?

CMiS2K is just busy trying to prove all the Texan stereotypes right. Almost makes me embarrassed to be from there. This thread should die.

Oh yeah, now I remember. I thought maybe it was just one of your CB tactics

Riding with you last event I see you mastered H/T now

I found auto-x is a great place to practice it. At the most recent event I went to there were 4 places where we had to do a 2->1 down shift.

It is fun to get into a corner w/ a perfect heal-toe.

I wish they'd hurry up and post the results, I am pretty sure I took 2nd fastest over all and likely 1st in the pax results.
