[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 5973360, member: 6247"] The heel/toe technique is not really for the sake of the transmission. (although it will aid in shifting) It's to match the engine revs to the drivetrain (and ultimately the rear tires) when down shifting. Otherwise your rear tires will "hippity hop to the barber shop" while trying to accelerate the engine. This will end up upsetting the ass end of the car and cause a spin if you're driving close enough to the traction limit. FWIW [/QUOTE]
