And I'm going by Tamago's word that it's safe in the long run for our cars when blipping while clutch in....

I tried going neutral and rev-match then clutch in and shift, but not as perfect as the other way around~~

I want to practice heel-toe when we hit the track. My shoe size is 11 and my work shoes are wide in the front....so i will try to find that spot like tamago has been saying...if not, then he better have some other suggestions for me

I can't imagine how to do it like that. It'd be too many processes.




Oh, I just noticed something the other day. When I'm wearing flip-flops, I do (subconsciously) heel-toe more often than when wearing shoes. But I switch to how Tamago does it. Brake with the ball of my big-toe, and use my little toe to catch the throttle. However, since the brakes on the Yaris is higher than the gas, I subconsciously slide the brake pedal in between my foot and flip-flop, but catch the throttle with the flip flop. In realizing that I'm doing this, I'm going to try to make the effort to stop because it doesn't sound safe. hahahaha.

Sandals or flip-flops are BEST for driving manual, no joke! I've used my little toe as well to catch the gas pedal, not all the time but mostly, especially yield sections...

I want to put grip tape now on my pedals, since my sandal's rubber is worn off completely and rarely they slip during wet days~

I, on the other hand, did not.

I really need to get into the habit of checking ebay before I buy... uh... anything.
