Heel-toe downshifting.

[JRRosales]

I'm trying to master the technique, how useful is this to you AutoXers?

[jrj512]

I use it on the occasion that I have to go into third, but I use it more at PCA time trials and the rare occasion that I track the car.

[cwisenheimer]

Heck, I use it every time I drive the Miata because it's fun.

it sooo easy on a miata compared to other cars, i do it on the track. driving shoes or a fat gas pedal help make this easier to do. i practiced with everyday shoes on the way home from work a couple years ago and when i put on the driving shoes it happened almost naturally.

I prefer toe-heel downshifting. :0

Pretty important anywhere you're not in 2nd on an autocross course whether that's going from 3rd back to 2nd or 2nd back to 1st.

I actually use toe-ankle. This guy uses toe-toe. Watch his foot work.

I kept expecting Lee Majors to jump out and save a kid in the video somewhere.

BTW - Nice work on composing that soundtrack, cone-cerned.

I use the left side of my foot on the brake, and roll the right side onto the gas pedal to revmatch. I do it all the time, much to the annoyance of anyone in the car (lots of eye-rolling).

I'm glad you like it. Composing was the easy part. I played my little heart out on each of the instruments as I mixed all the channels into one tract.
