Use nothing but heal toe shifting and double clutching!
I tend to be an aggressive driver and this is the greatest way to keep my car under my control.
They copied all they could follow
but they couldn't copy my mind
so I left them sweating and stealing
a year and a half behind.
--Rudyard Kipling

personally I don't see the advantage of double clutching, what is it? I know with the older trannys from old race cars it was necessary for the synchros but what is the advantage of it with our cars?

Older transmissions (race or street) didn't have synchros, hence the purpose of double clutching. Now adays with synchro trannys you don't have to do it...but it does save where and tear on the synchro gear. That's the short answer. let me see if I can dig up a good link....

And I double clutch for fun sometimes, it can result in a smoother downshift when done properly...but generally don't have time to mess with it at the track. As for heel toe, the way I drive it ends up upsetting the balance of the car so I usually come off the brake, blip the throttle, downshift, back on the brake. But that's just me. <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

Double clutching can be handy when trying to go into 1st gear during trafficjams. I can't get 1st gear engaged above 10mph without doubleclutching.
As for heel-toe: I can't do it with my feet and the stock pedals<img src=/images/forums/snitz/angry.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle><img src=/images/forums/snitz/angry.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Don't know why.. Maybe with some aftermarket pedals that are a little differently shaped it will work..
Me and simp are on the same wave length. I only double clutch when going down into 1st gear, for some odd reason it lets you do it at a higher speed that way.
And I know how to heel-toe but I dont find much use for it while driving my Tib. Firstly because I just don't need it much in my daily driveing and secondly because its so much easier to do with after market pedals, its such a pain to do it with the stock pedals it almost hardly worth it.
