Thank you! After 4 years of driving a Tesla, I rented a manual car for a week and used your videos to refresh my skills with the clutch. I had more fun rev matching a 90 HP manual car at 50 kmh than accelerating in a 440 HP dual motor electric car on the German Autobahn :-) Driving a manual trying to be smooth makes me become more aware of the engine, the car and the traffic around me, which is a very fulfilling and engaging experience while staying legal and safe at the same time…

Hi, Richard. I am a 18-year-old learner and I just want to thank you for teaching me how to drive a manual car. I've passed my driving test today and your videos were a major part of my learning experience because my real life instructors aren't very good at explaining things like you do. Of course, not to discriminate my personal instructors' blood, sweat and tears, and I'm sure they tried their best to teach me, but your videos helped me significantly, clutch control, hill start, engine braking, parallel parking, etc. Again, thank you very much for all your hard work in your videos. Please make more videos as I plan on continue watching your videos even after being able to drive on the road independently :)

Richard, I started watching your manual driving technique videos about 6 weeks ago. 2 weeks later, I purchased a new MX-5. It reset many aspects of driving experience that I've gained over the last 20 years back to zero. I have now watched nearly all of those videos multiple times. This week, I removed the "please be patient; student driver" sign from inside the rear window. Heel and toe is the only technique I don't more or less have under my belt at this point. I am now occasionally doing laps on a nearby 3-mile road next to a small airport and practicing downshifting with heel and toe from 4th and 3rd to 2nd. Every time I rewatch one of your videos, my practice helps me notice something new that you do that I can apply to make learning easier. For example, just now I realized that I can determine the optimal rev for a speed and gear combination by simply getting to that speed in that gear. Which means I can solve the issue of the slight jerk when the engine slows to match the wheel speed when I release the clutch somewhat quickly. Your other videos that include repeating the exercise in your MX-5 have also been a great help, because as you've said several times, revs in that engine drop astronomically quickly, so blipping for upshifts is often necessary, and blipping *after* shifting for downshifts is also correct. Driving a manual car has been fun and rewarding. Your videos have made what could've been a very stressful experience on Seattle hills and in downtown city traffic instead very smooth. Thanks for putting so much effort into your exhaustive explanations.

I was taught to Drive on a Series 2 Land Rover back in the 70’s, It had no gear syncing and tight gates, so you had to double clutch and double de-clutch.

I'm a 68 year old American. I learned to drive on a manual, and always owned manuals until a few years after the turn of the century, when it became almost impossible to find a car with a manual. I always rev matched downshifts, mostly because that's how my Dad drove and I copied his technique. Though I experimented with heel and toe downshifts, and got to where I could do it reasonably well, it was never my preferred technique. The way I did corners and curves was typically to clutch down and change gears while braking, then rev match and clutch up when I was ready to get on the gas. This can be done quite smoothly without forcing your right foot to multi-task. I'm watching these videos mostly out of curiosity, and impressed at how well they explain techniques that I used when I drove manual and in may cases learned through trial and error on my own.
@TR4zest2 ай бұрын
Yes, of course this can be done without multi-tasking a foot. What you do is coast between gears as you rev match. What heel and toe provides is to minimise th transitions between drive-brake-drive as you change down. I can and do mostly drive as you do, but there are times when hell and toe is useful.

What you’re trying to do is much the engine speed/revs to the car speed it’s travelling for the gear you are in …. go down a gear and you can either (1) make the clutch force the engine revs higher to match the road speed/gear combination. … or … (2) rev the engine with the accelerator rather than make the driving wheels through the gears and clutch so as to make the engine spin at the appropriate revs. Think of the clutch plate slipping until it makes the engine rev to the right engine speed (that hurts or the car losses heaps of road speed).you can help the clutch by forcing the revs higher with the accelerator.

He's even modest enough to admit he doesn't do it perfectly every time🙂(though his other videos show he's pretty good at it!) It's incredibly satisfying when you get it right. One weird thing: my 2021 US-spec Mazda3 has a "Pedal Misuse" alarm which goes off when the brake and gas are pressed at the same time. I disabled it (through the settings menu) on day 1 - I've never discovered whether heel-and-toe downshifts would activate it, but I assume they would.

Firstly i want to thank you for all these videos you make. I started watching you a few months ago and since then i have upgraded my skills in driving and i feel i have more control of my car, especially when rev matching (i drive for about 1 year a Chevrolet Aveo). What i find difficult to do is heel and toe, for the reason you explain in 11:38 (harder breaking than needed). I feel gas and brake pedals are far apart as well as the gas is far more down than the brake (so i have to press the brake pedal a lot to bring it in the same plane as the gas pedal) making it almost impossible to just "roll" my right foot to press the gas. I know it needs a lot of practice and you can't just simply solve my problem but i felt i needed to share that with you. Any advice is welcome. Thank you again very much!!!!!

As a youg man I learned and passed my test in a car, then, as I was in the army I went to a new unit where I had to drive an army lorry as part of my work. At that time, army lorries had a non-syncro gearbox so to down change gears you had to double de-clutch The way it was taught you pressed the clutch, put the gear lever into neutral, reved the engine, then put it into the lower gear. Which is not unlike your teaching of heal/toe, To get a clean change you neded to learn the engine sound because there was no rev counter to guide you. Although I currently have an automatic, watching your very good explanation, I realise that is how I normaly change down in a manual car, which I have usually driven.

Nice video showing how to do heal & toe. I've been personally doing it for just under 2 years. I'd like to share a bit of my thought about doing double clutching while heel-toeing which is a skill I've only recently acquired. I've recently mastered double clutching while doing heal & toe downshifting. For normal driving, it's really not needed, but apart from my gear shifter not willing to go down into 2nd at high speed, I find double clutching VERY satisfying cuz the shifter just slides into the gate buttery smooth. Usually when you downshift, the synchros do seem to tend to do more work cuz the pressure required to put the gear in the gate is greater than when shifting up a gear. That buttery smooth shifter motion is what I can't get tired of. Only negative thing for me about double clutching heel & toe is that I need to give it more gas than when doing just heel & toe (cuz you need to bring up the gear speed as well, not just the engine speed), and this makes me quite self-conscious when I'm near pedestrians because sometimes they cast a strange look at me. It's a strange thing cuz when I was younger, I always wanted my car to sound louder but as I get older I try not to draw too much attention. I'm not sure how many people sharing my feeling. Don't get me wrong, people's looks don't stop me from revving my engine a lot for double clutching, but that little bit of self-consciousness was not something I'd have or think about even a few years ago.

I feel the same, that's why my MX5 is 80 decibels at the track day noise test now when my VX220 was on the 90s. I've not done much double de clutching. But I know what you mean about heel and toe, people can look sometimes. But I like the sound of the blip, a good rev match is very satisfying.

ive been practicing this abit, ill bet my test supervisor may be impressed that a learner can competently do this technique, even though im in Australia, your videos are great and generally translate across as we have similar road rules etc,, and have been a great help at learning manual driving techniques.

Good video another tip is that each gear is roughly about 1,000 rpm away from the next. Example if you are going 30mph in 3rd gear you rpm is about 2000 but second gear will be around 3,000

Thank you. That's true at low rpm. At high rpm you will find the gears are around 2000rpm apart.

17 year old, been driving for a year, within 6 months I was learning how to rev match and I'm now working on heel and toe lol

That was me a couple of years back : ) First time I sat in the drivers seat I was 17, got the hang of heel & toe at 18, left foot braking at 19, now a mid field rally driver at 20. Driving is soo much fun once you know how to do it!

When I slow down in corners I usually just leave it at a high gear if I haven't down shifted before the turn. As the turn ends I give full throtle then down shift with gas and run away. But this teqnique is super cool. I can see how it can be nessesary for racing. Will definetly try it out

I must say that I didnt know exactly what is it, but when I had to accelerate once, I used revmatching to about 3500rpm and it was when learning to drive. And it was all thanks to your video and I tried it even without thinking about it, so thx a lot
