What is "heel-and-toe shifting"?
Heel-and-toe shifting is a driving technique used in manual transmission vehicles to smoothly downshift while braking. It involves using the right foot to operate both the brake and the gas pedals at the same time. The driver presses the brake pedal with the ball of the foot and taps the gas pedal with the heel, which helps match the engine speed with the lower gear. This technique is commonly used in racing or performance driving to keep the car smooth during downshifts, reducing wear on the transmission and improving overall stability.
