true, they use these techniques and itsuki is a crash dummy for them, takumi masters a technique ex:air drift and soon youll see Itsuki flipping his 85 off Mt. Akina

LOL

I mean, there should be a seperate section for racing techniques since we get so many questions about them.

Okay, haha. Not a single post here answers the question originally asked, which is.... The application of heel-toe to initiate a slide.

Heel-toe to a drifter means something more than revmatching while braking, it is a means to shift the weight of the car and produce oversteer. Also called a braking drift, the driver uses the brake to shift the weight of the car to the front tires, and at the same time downshifting and hitting the gas to bring the back end around.

You can see Takumi using this heel-toe technique many times during Initial D. Whoever made the show was a pure genius, they even go as far as to show the weight of the car shifting forward and the rear tires losing grip as the driver brings the revs up to start the slide. cool.gif

could someone explain the footwork during heel toe in a detailed manner?

do you press brake, clutch... then gas... [change gears] then take foot of gas? then press it again while letting go of clutch? then brakes are out.

what i said is probably 98% wrong and would cause a car to explode so... could someone explain? biggrin.gif

Step 1: Brake using the front of the right foot.

Step 2: With the left foot, disengage the clutch.

Step 3: Downshift

Step 4: While still on the brake, use the bottom part of your right foot to depress the throttle. If you are simply revmatching then you're gonna want to blip the throttle to the desired RPM, then let out the clutch. If you are trying to start a drift, then it is a quick, fluid motion: Brake, clutch in, shift, and while the weight is loaded to the front, bring the revs way up and pop the clutch(let it out quickly). As the back end swings out you want to get off the brake and modulate the throttle, and steer through the drift.

Heel-toe is amisleading term I think, cause most people probably don't JUST use the toes of the right foot for the brake... They'll use one half of the foot for the brake and one half for the gas. The foot won't be sideways but more of at a 45 degree angle. Like me, I have racing pedals so my brake pedal and gas pedal are so close together, I actually use the ball of my foot for the brake and "roll" my foot onto the gas...

Watch initial D, he does it during the opening credits.

Yeah, he's right. For the most part, you jusr rool your foot to blip the gas a bit. Not hard really, just need to practice, and you'll be doing it with out even thinking about it.

i dont hate u jayson, i dont hate anyone, its just wasted energy. i dont like ur spam, and the fact that u think ppl actually wanna wade through ur endless posting, be it a confirmation of what has just been said (which isnt needed) or just some 1 line ramble/dribble (also not wanted)

Uh..sorry to interrupt your conversation *ahemcoughcough spamming coughahem* ( biggrin.gif ) but can i ask a question about the topic? unsure.gif

Nissan and other companies recently created new technology involving the drivetrain and gears. The new Nissan SUV called the "Murano" features a function such as a CVT (Continuous Variable Transmission) that causes smooth shifting while keeping revs high.

With this and other companies putting down new technology , is heel-toe-downshift necessary when attempting a drift?

A CVT has no "gears", rather it is infinitely variable, depending on the the position of the throttle and such. Its more of an auto than a manual, but you can use it like a manumatic, in that case it usually has 6 preset gears (Im talking bout the Audi CVT). They have no clutch. Theyre pretty cool and good for gas mileage and medium performance... but stick to manuals for the real road/circuit racing.

E30 is 83-91, E36 is 92-99, E46 is 00-present

and these chassis codes are for the 3 series. the 5, 7 and 8 series have different chasis codes.

heel-toe never has been and never will be NECESSARY in order to perform a drift

but i spose that technology could remove the need for heel-toe, im not really sure , i dont know anything about that tech
