Re: Heel Toe Braking (How to & Video)
Have you done anything to change the pedal positions in your car to help with H&T shifting? I've tried it in my car and it seems like the gas pedal just sits to low to the floor (or the brake too high, however you want to look at it). My feet are sort of medium sized (10.5 - 11, standard width) and I can't seem to make my foot reach both pedals at the same time.

Depends alot on which shoes you're wearing too. But I think you'd find that under hard braking(high pedal effort) your brake pedal and gas pedal would be closer together. You wont notice this on the street since you don't do racetrack type braking.

You need a wider shoe, I never use the "heel" and "toe". I use the ball of my foot(big toe) on the brake pedal and the little toe side for the accel pedal. Joseph, next time we are together lets compare pedals.

Re: Heel Toe Braking (How to & Video)
Wicked - the difference may not be in pedals, though. Judging by the fact that you're like 6" taller than me, you probably have bigger feet than I do.
