I should point out that in my car, because of the pedal position and my size 12.5's, I can't actually hit the gas with my heel, but I keep the left side of my foot on the brake and I hit the gas with the right side. Same effect, just not using the heel and toe

Learning at the moment on a Skyline. A little tricky to say the least. Why I didn't think of this method when I lived in Canada, I have no idea

Yeah , I over rev also. Stiff manual disc brakes . You gotta push fairly hard on the brakes , it screws up my throttle control..77.

I do it all the time allthough I do it the more easy way just by rocking my foot to the right as I cover both pedals.

Camel-toe is better than Heel-Toe
Oh and I can't heel-toe my car because my brake pedal is ed up (have to bleed em and get new rotors and pads)

For me it very easy, in my atomatic shitbox, as you brake, just select lower gear (like 3, or 2 in some cars) and will downshit by itself, and just applyu gas right away.

You can heel-toe on pretty much any car: spongy pedal, super stiff brakes that have almost no complience, far pedals, close pedals, just a different technique. Practice doing it everytime you gear down for a week and if you haven't got it down.. well god help you
