Heel-toe shifting technique

My attempt at demonstrating heel-toe downshifting technique. This is a single-clutch technique. Double-clutching can also be useful. Some day I'll get around to making a video demonstrating that. :)

The "blip" is the quick stab at the throttle to bring the engine revs up to match the transmission revs.

This was the Elise (sold it). I heard that 6'2" was about the limit. For a lot of great info on the car, visit "EliseTalk-dot-com."

My Maserati used to downshift to 2nd while going 90mph around a... 90 degree curb. That' s because it got up to 9000rpm.And this was in the... 80s!Try that with a non- Italian car and you' ll be cooking kebab out of the engine!!

actualy, he's not matching the rpms like a truck. he's just revving it up before he lets the clutch out to make it smoother. notice his tranny doesn't grind :D
