Went out with my friend in his 997 Turbo to rendezvous with the cars on the Gumball 3000. We decided to hang with the Lamborghini LP670 SV owned by Jon Olsson along with a few others on the drive into New York City and to the finish line. Leave a comment and let me know what you think! Also feel free to subscribe and add me as a friend to see new videos coming in the future!

Learn: Heel and toe downshift

Here we are going to explain how to be a Heel and Toe downshift expert. Yup, you heard it right. Have you seen Jackie Chan doing it in movies? Well, you too will be able to do just like that. This is a technique which you’d be able to use only with your manual transmission car. Don’t think of using this technique in automatic transmission mode!!

After you learn how to do this technique effectively, you’ll be able to decrease the wear and tear of your car, and also control your car in a better way than ever. And if you practice it often, then surely, you’ll be improving your lap time, if you are fond of car racing on race tracks.

Heel and toe downshift is a tough technique indeed. You’ll have to use both of your feet, the gear shift lever, all of the pedals, and your right hand. Ahh, would it be something impossible for you to do? Nah, don’t worry. We’ll be explaining how to do it the best way.

A typical driver at a sharp corner, will try to downshift the car pushing the clutch, thus causing the car to buck a bit. This is something that most of us do and it doesn’t provide a smooth shift. Well, we should be knowing how to make the engine speed equal to that of the wheel speed. This is not the case with our driving. When we are going at high speeds, and at the corner, while we want to make a sharp turn, we often downshifts the gear. If initially it was in the 4th gear, he would be downshifting to 2nd gear. Doing so, the engines speed increases from zero to a certain value. This sudden change in the engine’s speed causes the car to buck a little. This will lead to wear and tear as well.

So, if you are going at high speeds and at the corner you are planning to take a sharp turn then you should be following the heel and toe downshifting technique. While applying the brake, the same instant, you should be downshifting the gear. This way, you’ll be able to do a smooth turn at the corner without causing any wear and tear to the car.
