i found out why i can't heal-toe in my car, is because my pedels ain't level with each other, the gas is way down and the brake is way up. gotta adjust it asap and practice heal toe.hahahhaha

You guys are lucky. I can't heal toe because my ECU cuts the throttle when the brake is on. Although I know I could "rearrange" the factory wiring :) That's what I get for buying an 02 I guess.

umm yeah so are my pedals, they are stock and i can heel-toe just fine. when you are depressing the brake, it will even out with the gas pedal and its very easy to blip the gas still. the only thing is if you read a billion articles about heel-toeing, you will never figure it out (at least thats how it worked for me). I watched a few drifting vids, my friend explained how it worked, then i just taught myself.

I wouldn't quite say it's "easy" per se. Maybe it you are used to doing it, but I believe these people are trying to learn. So, let me say, it is a difficult technique to master, but it can be done. And I don't know about watching drift videos (never seen a drift video where someone is heal-toeing), but if you watch some race footage with pedal cams, that is the best way. I found a few good ones on kazaa.
