Thread: heel toe downshifting

    Going through the motions by practicing on the street first is good because it helps you become more comfortable w/ it before trying it on track. Â*Everything happens much faster on track.

    From my own experience, when I first started, I found heel/toeing on the track easier than on the street because it didn't require as much finesse.

    I started in the street, so I don't really have the exp to rev match at a higher RPM.
    Got more experience rev matching at medium RPM, 4-5k when I go mountain run.

    Learn from your mistake: Start off with spin-outs then power slides.

    I gotta go on a ride along with someone while they do Heel/Toe so I know how it works/feels. I sometimes apply too much brake or I don't blip high enough. Damnit!
