  • did you see the first 20 seconds of his video????is he not revving the car sky high while the clutch is depressed???/ I thought tht'll eat your clutch up faster than tht chinese dude who beat the white dude eating hotdogs...

    I thought you are supposed to le the cluthc go and then rev ,then depress teh clutch in and put it all in gear before the revs fall too low...not what he's doing...

  • revving the engine with clutch depressed cannot damage anything.

    Your second paragraph is difficult to understand, I think you just described double declutching. Yes you are correct I am not double declutching.

  • this is a joke its not heel toe atall u dnt use ur heel and toe lituraly u use the ball of ur big toe on the brake and ur lil toe on the go go pedel this bloke under stands the theroy but not the technique.

  • Thanks for the insight, do you think it will make the car faster if I use the 'proper' technique?

  • Does heel toe down shifting decrease fuel efficiency? Because you are in higher rpms for a longer period of time.

  • Yes technically it would decrease fuel efficiency. However, this is insignificant compared with the overall style of 'enthusiastic' driving.

    Essentially engine revs can be increased by motoring (ie. kinetic energy passed from the wheels to the engine) or by blipping the throttle (introducing more fuel).

  • Nope, your wrong. Your slowing down anyways for the turn, and blipping the throttle, and this method isn't to increase efficiency, its to match revs for the corner exit on your next gear.

  • time to change ur windshield wipers buddy

  • wipers would drive me fuckin crazy

  • @sidflch motha fuckin kobayashi! and yea that looks ruthless to ur clutch. i think thats what they imply for drifting though

  • Why do you break like that? Isn't just as effective to hold down the clutch down shift while breaking but never reving? Any insight would be helpful thanks.

  • @Exutus balances your car so you don't get any sudden jerks - also it can save your gear box if you do it the proper way (slip into neutral and let go of the clutch before blipping the throttle). Of course it's useless for road driving but it's used for races

  • aren't you meant to shove it into neutral before you blip the throttle? to save the synchros and all that

  • @RichieTs it all depends on the cars pedals and how much room the driver has in there seating position.

  • @RichieTs You must be a douche to do that since the united states own a trademark called "Ford", they've invented the Ford Mustang, Ford F-350, F-450, F-650 along all the other versions, get your facts right kid.

    and you have more criminal convictions outlined in your youtube channel than whatever I've seen on earth, I'm sure you wouldn't even last a minute in the states.

  • @dubspins yank cunt how can u even think of commenting when you come from the most unsuccessful country in motor sport
