You prob need to have a set of very white socks

 

Don't forget the brown mockies!!

But seriously even I can heal and toe in the car, in fact I did it today.

Turn left with care = get around this at about 50km/hr with the back getting a little twitchy on the exit. Now that's what I'm talking about!!!

Drive it like it's stolen and it will go for year.....

And finally yes Weasel, the carpet has to be wearing under the throttle or it's all over and your foot is in da wrong place!

I miss Senna..... The good always go young...

 

WTF is heel and toe?

I have both, but do not know how to use it.

Please help, post in DIY!!

Thanks in advance.

 

Moderator...Sticky please.

Puuuuhhleeassssseeeeee...

 

lol..even with the video clip..i don't really get it.

which one is first..and which one is second...like clutch..and shifting gear...

how do they happen?? simultaneously?

 

heel toe lesson number one.

Practice.

Aim is to match the rev and engaged the gear when it do so.
So you need to change gear, blip the throttle and engaged the clutch while the rev is up there. Try it a few times, and a few more times, ... practice make perfect. And you tend not the think when you are doing it after a while.

 

Heel and toe aside, I found it interesting that Senna appeared to be stabbing at the accelerator pedal at times with a number of short sharp movements rather than feeding on the power more gradually.

Or am I mistaken?

 

In that car, that was feeding the power!!

 

LOL You're probably right.

I watched it about 3 times. The first time to watch his feet, the second to watch his hands and the third just for the hell of it.

 

I think they need a new speedo in the car as well!!!

 

Feeding the power....

Although Senna is my idol but I am more of the Jackie Stuart old style. Press on the throttle and never comes off it.

I might try that Senna trick next time, keep the car in the limit... prepare the catch the tail though

 

Exactly. Watch his hands when he's doing it.

 

I meant I have to prepare for the tail out.

(Think of it, I did do that and the car understeered ()

I don't normally have my tail out that much... even though people are saying it at the pit lane and the traction control will go crazy when I switch it on. The car is very balance on power.

 

I had my tail out a fair bit this morning ... the roads were really oily and any stab on the throttle caused me to tail out a fair bit. I ended up turning on DSC!

 

LOL ... it was quite slippery. Maybe I could do with a refresher course. *shrugs*

 

isnt it funny, some people are quite obviously hoons when it happens to them, others its ok

 

Meow.

 

haha I am trying to use more smileys to make sure people dont take what I say to seriously! But I cant be arsed waiting for the pop up list! SO SSSSLLLLOOOOOWWWWW today!

 

Hehehe ... I know you weren't being serious LOL

But yer, I guess I'm a hoon sometimes as well ... but not at the moment, I think my petrol pump is about to pack in ... the fuel guage is doing wierd things and performance is a bit spotty (backfiring and losing power ... it runs like I'm using Regular instead of Premium).

 

I ran on 91RON fuel for 9 months and had no issues. I actually felt the car ran perfectly on the street. I changed back to 98 RON because of all the track work I was doing.

As for your fuel pump, if you have been pre mixing then yuor fuel pump filter is probably clogged and you have to change the whole unit at around $500 I believe

 

Hmm ... in that case, anyone got a workshop manual?
