Who toe heels?

I was just wondering how many of you who own mt ralliarts know how to, and on a daily basis, toe heel on normal street driving. I learned how, about 4 months ago, when i got my car, so i just wanted to kno how many other people also do it.

I do it on weekends. There's really no point to do it on regular driving. Especially in Jacksonville because our roads suck *****.

I can't see why you would want to do this in daily driving... seems kinda pointless... but if it makes you feel like your driving a race car then I guess it's kinda fun... personally I just make engine noises... rmmmm rmmm rmmm... but seriously... no I don't do it in daily driving...

toe heel is rev matching, but breaking at the same time

i do when im late for work and my random weaving and swirving in the sea of hatian's trying to hit my car in their jalopys on biscayne blvd turns out to be fruitless. but only when someone jams on their brakes when im about try move over to pass them (therefore going too fast).

but i otherwise try to avoid it since brake pads are a hell of a lot cheaper than clutches

It is generally called heel toe.. And i do it on pretty much every downshift while slowing down.. It isnt soo much to think i am cool or feel like i am driving a race car. It is a game i play while driving trying to make the heel toe as *smooth* as possible..

Its not like i get to track my car very often so i guess maybe its just practice? haha
