    Default For the heel and toe crowd....

    If you need to add that next layer of complexity to your rF clutch pedal experience...

    http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=27897

    For some it may be enough to have the back end whip out in a turn, for others, this adds a nasty grind and a shift delay when you screw up. Fully configurable (read the readme... then read it again... then install).

    It cleaned up my shifting quite quickly and has helped me with learning to H&T better (note I did not say correctly, as my technique resembles the feet of a Rhinoceros).

    Notes...

    It does replace your horn so if that is necessary for you, this is not for you.

    It includes replacement sounds for the horn.wav (including some options for other sounds as your ear pleases). I have found that it is necessary to delete all references to horn_ex and horn_in.wav as well as any horn sounds that a mod may install because instead of a grind you will hear a BEEEEEEP!

    As always... YMMV.

    Hope you enjoy it... I have.

    All credit (blame, praise, scorn, etc...) to hardjack79... he made it, I just stumbled upon it.

    Paul, the skip barber instructors still call it heel toe but that is not what the actually taught us. More of a half foot o the brake other half on the throttle left foot on the clutch. Very difficult method to get used to for sur

    I had a few minutes to kill so I sat down at my PC for a few laps. I never wear shoes while gaming but because I was leaving the house, soon, they were on.

    Ohmigosh!...

    I've been peddling in my socks for I don't how long but I think that just changed. The simplicity of covering gas and break with a shoe (these are really nice walkers because I am hiking around a hospital) covered foot rather than a tube sock is monumental.

    I've always giggled at the Youtube vids of people in driving boots... I'm wondering if the sock crowd shouldn't be the ones being snickerd at.

    Anybody know where I can find a reasonable price on a pair? (10.5 US mens)

    I use a pair of water shoes from Canadian Tire. They have a fairly thin sole and a mesh upper. They are very comfortable and really cheap.
