How to Rev Match for BEGINNERS 

As a person that has three feet I can confirm it is very easy to rev match while braking

03:00 rev match 03:56 double clutching 06:19 heel and toe

i like how this guy simply explains to the point everything, there is no single useless word he add to the video. Thank you very much for the info !

This is a fantastic video that demonstrates not just how, but why rev matching is important. It gives three different ways of doing it and the reasons why you would do each. Well made, my man.

Spent an hour going through multiple videos but this was the first one that actually properly explained it. Cheers 👍

Years later, and this is still the best video explaining rev matching & heel toe. Love your content mate! Be safe :)

Your Shifts are really smooth, just learned to rev match but I want to expand on my clutch skills and you sir just helped me tremendously just by watching you, hopefully I make my 2022 Ecoboost happy 😂

So far this is the best video I've seen on downshifting - when you finally got into it! Well done!

the best video of rev-match I've ever watched, very well explained and best camera shown.

Damn that turbo sounds nice

Finally a video where you showed us slowly! Everyone always shows their foot work but it’s always too fast and they don’t explain it!! Thank you!

Double clutching in a turbo allows you to spool up the turbo for some extra boost, but won't give any performance gain with a normally aspirated engine.

been driving a manual for 15years plus , never rev matched in my life , gonna try it though.

59 years old, been driving a manual for most if my driving years but mostly just trucks and low performance vehicles. Since by my first performance vehicle, knew it was time to up my skills, been scouring RU-vid in search of a video that covers it all, yours is easily the first and best to really make it simple fir an old bastard like me. Great job, thanks for putting this video together. Fingers crossed you can in fact still teach an old dog new tricks!!!

Cheers. Currently taking driving lessons and I experienced that bit of slowdown when I go into a lower gear quite often. My instructor never really mentioned it so I figured that was normal. Definetly gonna play around with these techniques sometime.

Dude...why was this video 1000 times more effective at teaching me then any other video I’ve watched. It was a perfect how to vid in my opinion

Best video I've seen on this topic. Thanks you, Sir.

just started learning how to drive a manual and this video proved very helpful! im excited. thanks man

Obviously wore the suit just for the video 😂

I learnt rev matching from you man! Great video! And I love how you still reply to the comments even after 3 years, thanks and cheers!

Quite honestly the best rev matching explanation video I’ve seen. Great video and nice socks!

The best video I've watched about rev matching. Thank you.

This was by far the most informative video I’ve watched on driving standard transmission.

“Granny shifting, not double clutching like you should” 😂

I gotta stop smoking weed man I know how to do all of this it's 1 am I'm goin to bed

For barely driving stick for only three months after driving auto for 10 years. This video is the best. Most videos people step way too fast. This video was helpful.

Great video, amazing demonstration. Well done!

Great video! Very thorough explanations and easy to understand! Thanks!!

Thanks for this, I’ve always wanted to drive manual and this helped a lot

Ok.... After watching that I realised dad taught me rev matching when learning 18 years ago and Ive been doing it all along. The rest though was super informative thanks heaps!

Very helpful video thank you! I never really understood what rev matching or double clutching meant still even after watching other explanation videos but now I do. Thanks

I just got my first manual car and I'm excited to try your method of rev matching. I feel as it will improve my shifting smoothness. Thank you a lot :)

you actually explained this well, good vid mate

I needed this explanation, well done!

that 3 feet example was very funny as well as relevant XD thanks for the knowledge

hey thanks for the vid and explaining the rev matching. Never bothered with it all till now and wow it makes a difference.

A really instructive video. Videos on driving techniques from you tubers should be more common, I really enjoy them

WOW, this was really helpful, thanks bro!

Thanks for taking the time to show new drivers of manual cars how to properly rev-match. The heel and toe method does seem as it would be helpful. Plus, double-clutching; I had heard of the term before, but never knew exactly what it meant (F&F wasn't where I first heard about double-clutching.)

He shifts with absolute class

haven't drove manual on the road yet but as soon as i do best believe im gonna learn these, cheers bro Edit: Been learning for 4 months now and should have my license in a few weeks and im ready to go crazy practicing these on my own

You explained rev matching far better then anyone else on this app

I like your tie. Great video.

first started the video thinking you were a dbag but you are so clear and chill thanks for the vid!

Absolute class video

Great video👍🏻 finally someone who can explain the benefits of rev-match. I have even learned it myself with your help☝🏼

Thanks for the helpful tips so you just clutch in and rev as you change gear up or down will test it in my GR Yaris on my next drive. 👍

Well done, excellent job!! Great video for people to learn.

This is neat. I learned new driving skill today

I sympathize how difficult it is show/explain to others. I have mastered that skill from my early driving life and it comes automatically when Iam driving a manual car. It is good for the vehicle and I get a thrill from the sound that comes from exhaust when doing it. Thanks for video, it is well explained

Great video my guy!

Great explanation brother

thanks so much bro that helps alot u deserve more subs!

Dat Merc in the background at the start of the video though ❤️❤️❤️ Ispiri wheels look sick!

That turbo sound really good

Thanks for this !!

Thanks because your video is really helpful

Great video. You really teach how to do it.

Thank you, very useful!

Damn i actually learned alot from this thank you

Fantastic class

Tip for those learning heel and toe; rotate the way you sit slightly so your braking foot, and knee are pointing left. That way you'll be able to cover your brake and accelerator easier whilst learning.

You’d think driving instructor would teach you this 🤨

Very helpful !!!

I taught myself how to drive my manual Honda Fit, and maybe I should've looked this up beforehand lol. I've definitely been carried by synchro. I should start trying to be nicer to my car 😅 Thanks for the video, was really informative

great video!

nice explanation really nice, helped a lot of people i see

I knew I recognised those roads! A556 and then into knutsford

Amzing techniques

Good video👍

Great video thanks

Great video m8

Jan. 10th, 2023. RE: Driving a manual shift car ... 'Heel and Toe' method to downshift. Decades ago, I was with a girl in upstate NY on some nice winding mountain roads. I was driving a Chrysler, PT Cruiser, manual ... A 'Red' PT Cruiser, lol. (I'm 'cool' right?) The road was changing. I was coming to a yellow road sign, indicating a short hard left, 10 MPH ... It was the beginning of a very short, blind, 'S' curve, and downhill at that. I was doing maybe 30-35 MPH and slowed really quickly, using heel and toe, a technique I had become totally in-one with. Seeing the 1st yellow sign, '20 mph' I was mindlessly setting to downshift. A mostly straight road had now tightened into short left, right, left turns ... and from uphill, it had become flat, and now became, what turned out to be a triple S curve, all in maybe 120 feet, This was unseen to us, maybe a 'sign' was missing, maybe I just wasn't paying full attention ... and now the road was suddenly descending. The sun had set some time ago, but it wasn't completely dark yet. I entered this 'getting-tighter' S curve ... I was just downshifting (heel and toe) into 3rd gear, as she sounded the alarm, ... There's a 'stop sign' and a cross-road in just some feet. In my mind, I imagined a 'T' intersection ... with an 18 wheeler about to cross the 'T', lol Feeling a 'start' in my heart, I immediately continued the downshifts ... It was bam, bam, bam, all downshifts, all the way into 1st gear, but smooth as silk. (As she sounded the alarm, I was lucky to be in a short, but straight part of the 'S' curve) ... The downshifts were instantaneous, as tho they were ONE ... I finished the maneuver, but never stopped the car ... We were so short of the stop sign, that the curve in the road still had it not in sight. I let the car roll from that point, ... A bit of fear had me react with muscle-memory. The danger was there, .. and gone just as quickly. What had started barely 2 seconds ago as an Urgent moment, descended almost instantaneously into a cool summer breeze, lol ... She went 'WOW' !!! ... Still in a slow roll (in my Red PT Cruiser) ... I looked at her ... hesitated a bit ... and said: ... 'Bond' ... she had a puzzled look on her face ... James Bond !

Good vid!💯

Nice video, thanks :D

Enjoyed the video! Btw, what exhaust are you running on your Type R? Sounds good!

Mate you camera is amazing

dude...nice explications ;) no words left :D

Great job of explaining these techniques, I learned a lot! Thank you!

Thanks! Subbed!

2:15 Rev matching Matching engine speed to tranny speed.

Great vid thanks. I suggest white shoes for the next one though :)

Great video definitely helping me out & I love home simple you keep it. The only thing is it’d be good to see your camera a bit lower so we could see your hand shifting but also to have a mic on you so we could hear you a bit better

Spotted: Them Dealing socks! ;)

Ima try and learn to double clutch

5:54 that turbo blow off sound🤤

03:15 you mean from 4th to 3rd? Haha anyway very awesome informative video, thank you very much! :)

I bought a new Nissan 370Z sport coupe 6MT that has the Synchro Rev Match feature but I don't use it, manual rev matching is more satisfying. I usually use heel and to do rev-matching when I'm slowing down to save wear and tear on the synchro rings.

thanks mate

Nice

Jan. 10th 2023: RE: Heal and Toe ... My favorite way to drive is 'barefoot' ... which in the North East, USA, for me is about 5 months a year. My foot becomes a 'hand'. For those 5 or so months, I wear 'flip-flops' and take them off when I drive. Also, when I would go to Vermont for winter skiing, I would bare my feet to just 'socks' ... (Almost got a ticket when a female cop stopped me, and she said, 'Where are your clothes' young man ... I said 'there', and pointed to my sock covered feet, lol ) (She shook her head, but couldn't hide her smile) She walked away when I asked her if she'd like to play 'doctor'...

Good video

Thank you!!!! I know know how to do this...... in GTSPORT

I can rev match but now it's time to move on to double clutching and hopefully i can master the heel and toe, heel and toe is quite challenging for me but maybe it means i need to improve my muscle mind connection so i can control my right foot better.

I'm working on my license rn, I'm just gonna do this in my driving lessons on monday!

“Rev marching is matching the engine speed to the revs” the engine speed is the revs 😂

Fantastic

You sir, a gentleman and a scholar. Props for actually putting on a pair of slacks and shirt.

Thank you for this video, this has finally given me enough courage to try to turn off auto rev matching on my Type R. Is it ok that I practice with it on before I turn it off? I have only been driving a manual for 2 years now and I think I'm ready to try this! I bought this car with no knowledge of driving a manual transmission. Easy car to learn on for sure, but the snow didn't help make it any easier lol

I keep slamming on when trying to heal and toe!! 😢 U make it look so easy
