I have read about heal toe shifting in the plethra of auto mags I read but don't exactly know what it is. What is it? When is it beneficial? How would I do it? I am still rather new to standard transmissions. I started driving a standard trans in Oct w/ the purchase of my '76 240D. Since I think heel toe shifting is more performance oriented, I don't think the 240 will benefit from this skill. Now though, I also have my '85 Volvo 745 which is a lot more lively. Can anyone help me out?
