How To Heel-and-Toe: Intro to an Advanced Driving Technique

In this video, you’ll get an introduction to the heel-and-toe driving technique. The heel-and-toe technique is an advanced driving technique formerly used in several race types in the ’80s and ’90s. Heel-and-toe is not so common anymore because of the computers in modern race cars.
But if you want to drive a race car from the ’80s on a racing simulator, you’ll have to use the heel-and-toe technique because there is no computer to help you. It’s a complex technique to master but a great deal of fun!
Consider this: A hard brake pedal will allow you to brake later.
Imagine having a brake pedal with 5cm of travel versus a brake pedal with almost zero travel. You are going 300 km/h down a straight. With the long travel brake, it will physically take you perhaps 1/10 of a second to reach full braking power. If you have three hard braking zones on a track, you will lose 3/10 of a second each lap.
The Top 10 in F1 or GT3 is frequently determined in way less than 3/10 of a second. The conclusion is that we at Asetek SimSports have developed the Invicta pedals to replicate a real race car. Why?
Because it is the fastest but may not be what feels the best. It is your choice whether to be the quickest or have a brake pedal that feels soft and comfortable.

Will the adjustment knobs on the Invicta pedals be offered in any colors other than orange? I love the look of them, but would also like that additional level of customization to match the rest of my rig.

Hi Dean, We will offer upgrade kits later on with other colors :)

@@dennishampe4465 Thanks! Another question: will the sock friendly pedal faces be included in the box or will those be an accessory as well?

[@AsetekSimSports]

Hi @@dlugsch They will be an accessory as well :)
