Nice find Robo

Just makes me love mine all the more!

I've yet to see any clips of a Spec C Type RA though. Only the standard Spec C.

What's with hitting the brakes & dabbing the loud pedal at the same time?

In a nutshell, braking whilst keeping the revs high.

Heel and toe. Matching engine and road speed to give smooth downshifts whilst braking. Get practicing terminator When's yours gonna be on the road?

She's in the UK just waiting for the SVA test. Should pick her up next week (that right Juggers?).

TX.

PS

Is this the same as blipping the throttle just before changing gear ie as you go up the gear box?

Nice one Haven't a clue where mine is.... need to speak to Iain I suppose

Blipping is usually only needed on a downshift as the rpm needs to be increased to accomodate the lower gear. If you just slam it in the car becomes un-balanced by the additional engine braking. All IMHO of course, I'm no racing driver
