Agree with everyone wearing PUMA future cats.

I love to drive in these. They are an awesome shoe all round. Except when it rains and for long long days (6am type days.....)



I only need the team renault colors and I've got the lot

some of the puma low mid sole are great to drive with, but i felt too homo to walk around with those thing.

being a poor arse student i can't justisfy the price when a brand new converse chucks is around 30 bucks a pair

chucks=low, flexible and slim=great for driving
+1... chucks ftw!

adidas adi racer low, the feel through mid sole felt weird at first, but the heel more than made up for it. It has a hard heel so you can blip the gas easily. Much more accurate than other sneakers i have tried. I have used real racing shoes before and the heel feel is very similiar to the actual racing shoes i've tried.

Since I only really do 1/4-mile and auto-x, I just use my old a$$ adidas tennis shoes. 1/4 is just straight, so no biggy and in auto-x, you only really shift once and don't need the heel/toe technique cause you just mainly stay in 2nd gear the whole time.

you're kidding, right?? one of my friend's grandpa brakes with his left. i tried it one time just to see what it was like and it just doesn't work. the left is so accustomed to raping that clutch pedal that when i tried to get my left to brake lightly it couldn't do it.
it doesnt work only because of what you said, you are not used to it. remember the first time you hit the brakes when learning to drive? i think that 95% almost plant their faces into the steering wheel the FIRST time. do it enough and your brain will learn the proper pressure needed with your left
