    Still prefer heel and toe, it is a tango that has your shifter as your dance partner and I always felt learning it well was what helped me keep my transmissions alive. My Mach 1 had a factory blip shift and I never really cared for it. Yes I am...

    fwiw, Auto Blip make a unit that fits into the OBD port as well.

    Not really, you do need to be on the brake and fully release the clutch for the second shift. I can sometimes beat the timing if I don't fully release the clutch.

    ..the left ball of foot & slight roll onto the throttle (with a wider gas pedal) is great advice, & if you practice on every downshift during street driving it’ll become second nature at the track. Also very important is having the throttle lag...

    It takes a few minutes to get used to. Place the the pedal is about 1/4 to 1/2 lower than the brake

    I'm a kart racer, it was either left foot braking or left foot braking and a sequential box, so I never was good at heel n toe, for this reason I use an auto Blip, and for me, not having to mickey mouse around with a laptop and programming is a...

    Exactly. The knobs of the auto blip have moved on me. Some have put rubber bands or o rings on the knobs to hold the knobs. With the Xing unit you can program in, by percentage, the amount of delay and activation. When working out which...

    In general I’m a fan of MMR products. Their module is plug and play and is controlled via an app on your phone so that was the deciding factor.

    ..and it’s an invaluable skill if you’re driving a manual car/truck down an icy mountain pass & can’t break traction with a mismatched downshift. (see full post)
  • stevbd replied to the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles.
    Fair points but are the aftermarket modules really as seamless and dialed in as the modern oem auto blip features? I don’t have any personal experience but how do the modules know when you want a big blip versus a small brush of the gas etc? I... (see full post)

    When you watch Cayman GT4 and 991GT3s walk away on the ups and downshifts, you can understand the need to put the pride away and use the available tech to compete. All the props for those who can do the "heel/toe dance". But I will say this...
  • stevbd reacted to GAR944's post in the thread S550 Heel-toe struggles with Like Like.
    I've been watching this thread with interest as to me it appears to be an American thing to use "artificial" heel/toe addons. I've never known they were even a thing till this forum. My guess was the propensity for automatic transmissions and big...

    It scrapes the parking lot all the time, it's not the flattest parking lot ever built. We run down at the Echo Park Speedway parking lot (formerly Atlanta Speedway) on the south side of town. Unfortunately this is the only area we have to race... (see full post)

    I’ve been running the Bob’s kit since 2019. For such a simple concept, it took some trial and error to get it dialed in. The only physical mod I made to eliminate any contact with the axle was to open up the half-moon shaped cut on the one... (see full post)
