Bullshit Turbo8U. Regardless of what your clutch and rpms are doing, you still have to slow down a certain amount before a turn, and the weight transfer will not change at ALL regardless of what you do with the rpms. It's some ricer shit that has no point whatsoever on a modern car, like was said above.

its quite obvious you have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

how about you do some research before you post next time.

try google....search for this "rev matching weight transfer" and prepare to get owned after you read up. here are some links:

http://www.ferrariclub.com/faq/heeltoe.html
"Done properly, this minimizes the weight transfer from the rear to the front of the vehicle since the shift is less abrupt,"

here's a blurb for you, might want to read up before you go spouting off "knowledge" you think you may have about this subject

"Heel-and-toe: One of the great advantages of a manual is that you can anticipate a corner or hill and shift into the correct gear before slowing down or hitting the gas. In racing conditions, this happens very quickly, along with the need to brake hard and getting back on the gas very quickly. So quickly in fact, the sequence of pushing the clutch, shifting to a lower gear, braking, then getting back on the gas as you release the clutch is impossible. Even if you could, the weight transfer forward while quickly downshifting would probably upset the balance of the car. This is where heel-and-toeing comes it. It means that while you are braking you need to operate the clutch and the gas to rev match as you downshift, resulting in a smooth transition that doesn't unsettle the car and provides the right gear for acceleration out of the corner. Three pedals and two feet, hmmm... The way it is done is the left foot is used for the clutch, while the right foot spans both the brake and gas pedal, classically with toe on the brake and heel on the gas. This technique requires quite a bit of experience, and practicing how to double-clutch first would help.

so before calling BS again....might want to "Learn How to Drive a Manual Transmission"
