Funny I was just working on that, unsuccessfully I might add. There's a devil in the new pack if I can get it to work.

Rick, like I mentioned earlier......Old dogs & new tricks are a bad match but I am starting to get used to the new TMO.
Haha. I'm an old dog too and learning new tricks is what keeps me going. You should try all of what's going on behind the scenes. 
P.S. I like how my signature "2012 BOSS CO/BLK #1886" is on ALL my posts now. Good Job!
We removed multiple signatures on purpose on the other software to get pages to load faster. You may have noticed the new setup loads very fast.
I wish I knew what "behind the scenes"entailed.....I'm sure its a lot with this upgrade...............

Suggested for years for folks to practice heel and toe in newly developed housing areas , since there are usually some in about any part of the Country. Speed is not the important part, just practicing the movement. Other option is to get on a lightly traveled road in the country. Either way practicing at lower speeds is fine, you are trying to get technique and to a certain degree habit , prior to doing it at the track.
Autoblip is a great idea for many though, especially for those that left foot brake. Either way, do what is best for your driving style , because the more comfortable you are the faster you are likely to go. Old farts , like me, especially enjoy the ballet of heel and toe, and as I mentioned it helps me stay focused and concentrate on every lap time.

I have to agree with Bill. You can practice heal toe almost anytime you drive.
Start with braking only by modulating and braking with your heal elevated off of the floor. Your left foot has to float and the ball of your foot on the brake pedal. Eventually this will be your heal/toe pivot point.
Begin heal toe training at slower speeds and begin to increase the speed your vehicle and your heal/toe action. Once you get it, you'll find yourself heal/toeing on your way to pick up a gallon of milk!
It just takes practice and for me the biggest challenge was getting my left foot (heal) off of the floor and learn to properly modulate my braking.
Good Luck,
302 Hi Pro
PS: With proper shoes!

I have bad feet, I just wear flats now. Wow, a week of corned beef and cabbage at your house, hope you stocked up on Fabreze Air Freshener ....whew!!
Ah St. Patrick's Day. The day everyone wishes they were Irish! We had our corned beef, cabbage and potatoes last Sunday. Yum.

Best corned beef in the Universe is at Katz's Deli in the lower East side of Manhattan. Put that on some rye, layer on the sauerkraut ( another take on cabbage) , little Russian dressing , and that is my idea of corned beef and cabbage!
Heh, have some Irish ancestry in my blood, so fair substitute in my mind, ha.
Seriously, have a safe and fun St. Paddy's Day today ,and though cereal malt beverages start flowing even at 6 am down the road in Omaha, heard recently the best place to celebrate the wearing of the Green is not Boston or Chicago, it is Savannah, Georgia ( surprised me too !)
