It would also help im sure to have a faster reving car... Lightened Flywheel Where are you at??????????

which still wouldnt do you any good if you dont have the basic technique down. You can have huge brakes which means you can stop better but if you dont dont how to control corner entry it doesnt mean ****....

not really on heel toeing when your in the high rpm range already you dont need to it rev super high. a standard fly wheel is more then enough. Dont worry about how fast it revs worry about what your doing with your feet

the only tip i can give u is canyon all out driving and then try practicing heal-n-toe or track driving. To be able to do it on the street with not mashing the brake pedal takes lots of practice.

Good luck.


BTW nismo Z is sick, i have personally seen it in action.

It helps when the manufacturer sets up the pedals properly, a la BMW/Porsche/Ferrari. Why no one else does this is beyond me.
