3 WAYS TO DOWNSHIFT 

Wastegate Media do a vid on how to double clutch

Wastegate Media 887 right now

Wastegate Media doing it in slow motion while the car is turned off and in neutral step by step would really help.

no too fast you should do it slow motion ... and you have to show a stick camera we have to see you shifting too smh

Brook Anteneh thanks for the feedback. We will keep this in mind for the next driving video we make

Probably a good time to switch your music genre to metal. And don't forget to max your volume!

Honestly I think you might've just unlocked a new soundtrack in your vehicle. Congratulations.

You just basically let your transmission overrev your engine to its mechanical failure.

I feel this. In a literal way

this was literally me a few weeks ago LMAOO

Literally

lmao when I watched heel toe a few months back I didnt know what happend. But after watching it again today, its acc starting to make sense!

May your transmission rest in pieces... ouch

Same, I even rev match it.

if the car is new model, For example the new mustangs, there is already a software that can bring the RPM High if you downshift.

My 98 lude would rev match for me I believe

@@justafish-bd8kw This isn't really necessary unless you're racing, which some people here tend to think they're doing all the time, heh.

Same here, I think this is over complicating, I never "rev match" or whatever, if I'm in forth and I'm reducing speed, when I feel that I need to downshift to third I just release the gas, press the clutch, shift and let go of the clutch, as simple as that.

@@t0nito Mine goes way faster than your stupid manual so you are the LOSER. And kids can't drive automatics because they are short you pig.

it works fine if your driving normal, the clutch will only wear out a little bit more, this is more an high preformance/sporty type of driving

And in Europe we have bymass flywheel almost on every new car sometimes you don't even notice shifting but you will notice when that stuff breaks

So basically Ive been rev may hing the whole time lol

@@jogmas12 same as rev matching just w your foot on the brake

*racecar shifting* 😂😂😂

@@jogmas12 Its hard on a lot of production cars because of the distance between the brake and gas. Especially for people with smaller or narrower feet.

Like I am right now

ahh the smell of clutch

Watch initial d and you will know how

maybe if you're with low rpm on 6 you can downshift it to 3 but if you ever exceed redline, well, you're fucked up bro

Lyndii Mey if that’s true your stupid

Well, you should practice somewhere safe obviously if you don't feel comfortable doing this.

Usually you wanna be on an empty parking lot and play around with the first three gears till you feel comfortable enough to do it on the road at speed..

Do you drive a v6 mustang? No just kidding I get it I'm not like those jerks.

Bryan Morton you’re****

You can also down shift by breaking until your rpm’s are around 1200 (personal experience yours may be higher or lower) and then pressing the clutch lowering your gear and slowly bringing the clutch back up without jumping or having to get off the breaks at all

@@Joekoch-gp8zqso through a corner you slowly get off clutch to not jump?

You’re welcome! Glad we could help!

+taunusv4power thank you so much for the feedback! We appreciate your support!

transmissions cost more to fix than brakes tho...

As far as I understood, rev matching saves gearbox the impact of flywheel due to it's low speed during downshifting.

transmission wont take ANY damage if u know how to brake with engine

Can u rear end my bmw? It has slight crack on rear bumper and im too lazy to replace it

Seriously though - Don't powershift into OD! Your over-driving the driveshaft faster than the engine. This consumes gobs of torque to accomplish that and under full power will really shock the gear train. Ease into the upshift to OD then get back on it.

Edit your comment with "(nevermind)"😂

Pretty much what prompted me to learn, that and trying to drift in BeamNG drive and sliding out downshifting through corners. Tell you what, it improved my driving and somehow improved my fuel economy.

Im sure group b rally was befor initial D

In the words of Boris, you drive by ear.

But men have 3 legs xD

Easier said than done haha. You can't get that foot to pivot so nicely with the walls in the way. Most of the time end up hitting all 3 pedals at once.

Lanky Ninja size 47( europe) here. If I do a heel toe I turn it around. I brake with my heel and tap the gas with my toe. This is very clumsy in the beginning tho. What I win is that my feet don't get tangled up and I can keep the throttle pushed in after the corner.

Yeah, I have size 13 and I have to use the left side of my foot on the break and the right side on the gas. It works lol

Lanky Ninja same bro, I wear size 15 extra wide and it's hard af to try to drive with a smaller footwell. But like anything, you adapt. Skis for feet sometimes get annoying

When you wear a size 18 it is easy as hell to heel toe. My foot is so big that I learned to heel toe in my first month of driving stick without anyone's help. The problem is that I'm 6'8 so I don't fit in a lot of cars.

All very good, but the word you and Ian are looking for is Explanationer

MArk Easton pretty sure its "Explanationist"

great explainer!

Heel-toeing is really a racing technique and not at all necessary for the street.

I'm looking to buy a manual 350z soon and I thought the same thing when imagining what I'd have to do to slow down.

Hows it going?

@@marvin2678 I've gotten pretty good at it. Not super smooth every time but I've made leaps and bounds of progress

V8Roehrldrifter I just got a 5.0Mustang gt for my first manual and sometimes I'd down shift and the wheels would lock a split second this explains alot what you said

@@jebasun02 Exactly, now imagine this happens when you are on the limit and about to enter a corner at 100+mph, not funny. The reason for the wheel lock: The rear wheels are connected to the engine (and the tarmac) while in gear with released clutch pedal. You drive 50mph in 4th gear for example, the rear wheels are turning suitable to this speed and the engine runs at 2500rpm. Now you press the clutch pedal. The car is still moving 50mph, the rear wheels too (they are not connected to the engine now but still to the tarmac) but the engine is still at 2500rpm (even lower because the rpm drops when pressing the clutch pedal). You put 3rd gear in and release the clutch pedal quickly. There is a problem now, 2500rpm in 3rd gear isn't enough to spin the tires the suitable speed for 50mph, it needs way more engine rpm in 3rd gear to drive 50mph. The rear wheels are spinning too fast for the engine, the engine is spinning too slow for the rear wheels. But you connected those together by releasing the clutch pedal. Now the rear wheels tries to accelerate (because spinned by the tarmac) the engine to the right rpm for 50mph in 3rd gear but can't do it fast enough because of mass inertia of the engine. At the same time the engine slows down the rear wheels because its not spinning fast enough for those. The connection can't be hold anymore because of the different speeds, so it breaks at the weakest point. Fortunately the weakest point is the connection of the rear wheels to the tarmac, the wheels turns too slow for the tarmac which moves with 50mph under those wheels, thats why they loose grip and lock (they don't really stop turning but turns way slower than needed). This weakest point of connection in FWD and specially in AWD cars is often a different one. The clutch, drive shafts or even worse. You bypass this problem by rev matching or heel & toe. Sry for the text wall, i tried to explain it as good as i can in english.

Thank you.. man I can see Soo many people trying to do this shit and wrecking

Good way to eat the life out of your clutch if you don't know what your doing. Here's the basics learn to crawl before you walk. Walk and walk well before you run. Run and run fast before you race. Racing is fun, a lot of adrenaline, but dangerous to you and those around you. Make wise choices. Live a long and happy life.

And they teach me that heel toe only is used on big corners with high speed. Hairpin we dont use heel too so we have extra brake force and can brake later before the corner. And is rev matching not only really needed on turbo engine cars? To keep turbo spooled

*Eurobeat Intensifies*

Fujiwara 藤原 This is the guy that mastered the art of heel-toe downshift! And delivers the best fried tofu of the Kanto region! :D

eurobeat and lighting a cig whilst performing an inertia drift is the fastest way of learning this

not necessary in a car , they fit Dual Clutches to automatics and removed the torque converter. super cars have 2 clutches so its already in the next gear ,i suspect you have a dual mass flywheel if your car is indeed a manual or standard as you call it ..

@@simonpickering3609 r/whooooosh

Yes.

You learn that shit when your slave cylinder fails

Or powershifting...

Now we are talking.... the real thing is to go up and down without using the clutch.

@@Bochablue you mean clutch wile standing on the gas🤔

HDM Family once you drive a manual, you'll never wanna go back to auto!

thats what im thinking too! and lol im so young right now, im about to take a road test on next month and im only 16 because i live in new york. and i cant wait to go back to philippines and drive my moms old car. i like manual car so much, i even made my own homemade arcade racing game

Funny, here in Europe we saying once you go auto you'll never go back ;) The thing is I'm used to manual I don't need a change. Manual is fun

LOL, yes your right, i lived in 20 NZ years ago and had an auto Jeep, t'was awful never went near an auto again , drove a couple of manual Holden commodores in Ozzy , man that was sick ....manual all the way bro

You should try the manual gearbox. Its difficult at the begining but if you get used to it has so much fun.

Since posting above, I have discovered a reason, however it is a bit of a stupid reason. Basically, all modern consumer cars (read cars made after dinosaurs went extinct) with manual transmissions have some things called "synchronizers" inside. Literally, the job of the synchronizer is to make it so that you do not have to double clutch as explained in this video. However, as with anything, through use comes wear. Thus, double clutching is effectively like saying "I don't use my blinkers because I don't want my blinker bulbs to go out".

Double-clutching is used more often on work trucks and specialty transmissions. It's also helpful for when the synchros in a transmission are messed up. It also helps reduce wear by making your shifts smoother. It's also fun to do, which is as good of a reason as any. Maybe you should do some research before you say dumb things on the internet.

1) A professional driver of a work truck will not only never double clutch, but he will also not use the clutch at all, unless he his stopped/stopping. Of course, you would not know that because you're talking out of your ass. 2) In no way does double clutching make your shifts smoother, obviously you could improve at downshifting if that is your impression. 3) Certain people find a lot of stupid things to be fun, I find efficiency (removal of useless actions) to be fun 4) Nothing I said above was incorrect 5) Maybe you should do research before you say dumb things on the internet

PS, you're not worth another reply from me, feel free to piss out any more bullshit you have

Or sound like theyre really "cool and informed" by over complicating the mundane...

@@dalkra99 6th gear is nice, but wish it was taller on my STi. At 100km/h on 6th, the car is still close to 3000 rpm.

@@absboodoo same here honestly. Makes for some loud freeway driving at 85mph.

the funny thing is this is just downshifting

Just shift every 1000 rpm and remember to delay the shift for about a second.
