Re: Attention all good drivers!
Is't heel-and-toe when you depress all the padals at once?
Like: left foot on clutch, Right foot- heel on the accelerator and toe on the brakes? Maybe thats wrong, do i think right: Double clutch is what described previously, Rev-match is what I added to my previouse post and Heel-and-toe is what I described just now? By the way logic, you are quick .

Re: Attention all good drivers!
double clutching is matching the transmission input shaft speed with the output shaft speed so that a car without synchros or worn down transmission can shift
heel toe is downshifting while braking without upsetting the weight balance of the car PLEASE READ THE TWO LINKS I PUT UP EARLIER but basically heel toe = clutch in shifter to neutral clutch out clutch in shifter to next gear clutch out heel toe= braking clutch in tap the gas with right side of foot while left side of foot is still on brake shifter to next gear and let out clutch before the revs drop from the tap of the gas the point is to match the engine speed to the wheel(transmission) speed so when you downshift you dont experience engine braking or that slow lurch that you feel when downshifting normally. both of these will severely upset the balance of your car and cause you to probably spin out when driving hard.

Re: Attention all good drivers!
I dunno that much about heel-toe shifting, but I know about double clutching and floating gears from spending time on a truck when I was 16.
Double clutching is like the first example slidewayz... gives. Clutch in, shift to neutral, clutch out (first clutch action), rev up, clutch in, shift to next gear, clutch out (second clutch action), mash on gas til next shift. Floating gears is used more in truck driving, and things like nascar. Its where you match your road and engine speed to where you don't need to depress the clutch. Just shift to the next gear. Saves wear on the clutch, but wears the tranny faster. I can do it in my 83 Nissan/Datsun truck, so I don't see why it isn't possible in a 240.
