Heel-Toe???

[Fled74]

I mostly use left-foot braking. I've tried "reverse" heel-toe a few times, with my heel on the brake while blipping with the toe, but it's not easy because I wear boots all the time.

I've been driving for 14 years and I mostly just drive instinctively - I'm not even aware of what my feet are doing sometimes while cornering at speed.

I've never had a problem! How bad is the delay on yours?

I'd never even heard of this until this thread! And I don't think it's wise that I try it anywhere but in front of a professional, or I'll kill something...

why would you want to exit slower than your entry speed?

I think he means that You'd want the car in 2nd to exit the corner so that its in a lower gear and revving higher so to avoid bogging down in too high a gear.

ok

lets break it down

3rd gear at 5.5k rpm = about 110-120ish? there or therabouts

what corners can you enter at 110 and want to exit at a max of about 90kph? (redline 2nd)

Josh your COMMING to a corner. I did't say your in the middle of it. You still need to start braking.

Either way it could just be a tightening corner.
