Trying to downshift using heel-toe technique

[dantheman9360]

woah that shifter is cool a shit!

[ramentasty8]

any tips on the heel toe? I think i have it down but its not second nature. If i do it correctly, should i be able to drop the clutch back?

[Giraffinator]

I think the shifter placement is sexy

[makoshark40]

uhh sorry but i think the shifter placement is stupid

[ProTuner06]

@makoshark40 I agree. I believe most of the industry agrees considering it's rare.

[makoshark40]

@ProTuner06 alright at lest im not alone in opinion or getting cussed out for it lol

[97cwitr105]

@everybody All EP's have the gear shift up on the dash....

[plzforgiveme987]

lol ur car's weirdd, how ur stick or transmission is at, nd i think @driftmachine811 ment the stick.

[GTSRyan]

ahh, the part where I panic and suck at doing in simulations lol

[savegex46]

would be could but pussys drive in gloves

[ProTuner06]

@savegex46 1. Your grammar sucks. 2. People that drive on REAL tracks with REAL cars wear gloves inluding EVERY single professional in professional racing today so shut your mouth. Btw, this isn't driving! It's Racing numbnuts!

F1, NASCAR, Nurburgring, Le Mans, Karts, Rally, Sprint cars, etc. etc. All wear gloves.

[IchBinSchtiffy]

Heel toe is liek impossible in the Jaguar x-type. The room for your feet is pitiful

[catfisher10100]

I love to drive but i have a size 14.. sooo i cant really heel to toe...

[metabolife]

ooo yay an ep

[ffffaffff]

racing in a honda? to each his own, i guess

[jdrizzo21]

@ffffaffff and i suppose your "race cars" go in straight lines, or always to the left....lmao

[DriftMachine811]

wahahahaha look at it's gearbox it's not in the bottom part near ebrake lol!!!!

[ondrascz]

@DriftMachine811 Sorry, but no gearbox is visible in this video ;)

[DriftMachine811]

@ondrascz no you can even see the driver shifting gears

[branbun1]

@DriftMachine811 is a gear shifter.and the"Bottompart"is called a console.

[zx6rluke]

civic type R ftw

[ondrascz]

@zx6rluke No CTR in this video. It's Civic EP2 1.6

[zx6rluke]

@ondrascz yep your right my bad, i thourght only the typr r had the gear stick on the dash, but i noticed after i posted the emblem on the wheel isn't red :$

[Polishsebbe]

On this video you change gear befor you blip and that wrong mate!

[dacarfreak2000]

I have a Lancer EVO 6 and installed a roll cage with sparco bucket seats a KN Intake with Nitto Tires and OZ wheels and I was one of the SLOWEST people on the track because my Car is Underpowered against a Lan EVO X and a nissan Skyline R34. :(

[MyOpinionMatterss]

@kiptheparonite Again, another ignorant comment. Not surprising. Lets see some track videos with lap times and I may retract my comment. Anyone can spit out numbers and parts lists. Fact is you don't ever see Mustangs on circuits or autocross and there's a reason for that. A properly setup Miata with a decent driver will piss on your car with less than half the horsepower. Face the facts.

[MyOpinionMatterss]

@kiptheparonite Figures, another tough guy in a Mustang. Too bad Mustangs can't go around turns. You would get raped on a track by a Miata my friend.

[MyOpinionMatterss]

@kiptheparonite Very ignorant comment. The pedals on a Miata are set up great for heel toe downshifts. The Miata is an ideal track car in every way.

[HCNguyen86]

@MyOpinionMatterss Yes very true, I owned a Mazda RX7 (FC), honda Integra TypeR R and a Miata (NB) and the Miata was one of the best on the tracks I ever have and still is. Competing in the SCCA regularly :}

[Spiegel420]

you tap to late tap as you go through neutrel. driving a car with out a syncro in any gear will teach you perfect downshifts.

[1337shellc0der]

WTF THE SHIFTER IS ON THE DASH WHERE IS MY GOD NOW?

[CODEEmx527]

cool car.............

[artho15]

this nigga got gardener gloves on lmaooo jk

[TheAirsoftmason]

lol all the gear and not much idea but god you luck like something that family guy would take the mick of im not hatin im just sayin a bit of a bmw driver look but in a honda

[nismohead100]

WTF? the placement of the shifter is weird

[burmkilla]

@kiptheparonite hahaha what do u drive? i cud kick your ass in a race wiht your ricer car. ha its a race car

[burmkilla]

you suck. i cud do it in my sleep from every gear in my miata. my fucking 12 year old bro learned it his first time ina manual car

[vandalaylatex6969]

Killer gloves man!

[analisepoo]

its your own style folks, some shift then blip, or blip and then shift, but I do both at the same time. Mate, you in a CRV?? the gearstick is on the dash virtually, is it only CRV's that do that or is it others too?

[StefanTetteroo]

Brno Circuit?

[ondrascz]

@StefanTetteroo yep

[flattersnack12321]

nice gloves

[jstriker100]

Here you go people:

brake,

clutch,

blip,

downshift,

release the clutch (with foot still on brakes),

release brakes,

gas

[dudelikeomgz]

@jstriker100 wont that jerk? if you just drop the clutch?

[mrimconfused]

@jstriker100 ithought it was brake, clutch, downshiftm then blip

[SprinterGTApex]

@mrimconfused no if you leave the blip at the end the car will jerk trust me. I know the ins and outs of heel and toe and rev matching. brake, clutch, blip, downshift, clutch out, off brake then throttle. I usually use the double clutch method to challenge myself and improve my footwork finesse

[carlos4thcalderon]

@jstriker100 funny that this is much easier to understand than watching instructional videos, thanks

[trd88noz]

ok to whoever needs to know how to do hell-toe downshifting, first thing you have to do is get on the brakes, steady. then after that either clutch in+ throttle then shift, OR clutch then throttle+ shift, it all depends on what kind of car, FWD/RWD, driving habit, etc. i have a corolla and a miata, i cant do heel-toe the same way between those two cars. its jut different. the corolla wants clutch-shift---blip-clutch out, while the miata wants clutch--throttle(not just blip)-shift-clutch out.

[monomariodog]

@trd88noz would that be because the miata has a syncro-rev limiter and wont let you downshift till you raise the RPM to match the speed of you Gearbox.

[trd88noz]

@monomariodog my miata is 94, so i dont think it has syncro-rev limiter or whatever it is. its just the way the gearing and syncros were built. different cut angles and materials will result in different shifting characteristics.

[monomariodog]

@trd88noz ok kool

[miamipacheco]

eeeeee peeeeeee thr33333333

[Oilev]

Hi there mates, only remember one thing: when You blip the throttle, the clutch has to be lifted up, otherwise it's useless

[xxKilLSnIPexx]

ok i dont understand what does blip mean?

[mustangtomiata]

tap the gas to get the motor revved back up for the next lower gear.

[tristantao]

tap on the gas.

[Ghostlych0b]

it means tap on the accelerator to rev

[itgleb]

tristantao +1

[carsismeZ06]

So when you shift down, you are on the brake pedal, you put the clutch in and select a different gear, and after that blip the throttle?

[streeturbo21]

1. press brake and clutch at the same time.

2. Shift into lower gear.

3. while braking, blip throttle to rev match.

4. get off of the clutch.

i think thats the way you do it... you can always watch other youtube videos that people teach how to do it.

[tristantao]

1, brake

2, clutch, and blip at the same time (ctluch in SLIGHTLY before blip),

3, select gear,

4, release clutch

[tristantao]

no. u brake. then clutch and blip at the same time, (clutch slightly before blipping, and this is done before shifting), then shift. then clutch out.

u need to clutch + blip before shifting.

[Jebo369]

Ok...
