depending on the course layout i will sometimes heel toe from third to second at an autox. not a lot of courses allow me to hit third but id say almost half the events this season have had long starts and i would reach third(b18c with type r tranny) for about 2 seconds and then would have to heel toe for a corner. not that big of a deal. just keep practicing till you know your gearing and throttle response.
driving at the limmit actually helps to do it smoothly and also i cant even begin to tell you how mych a nice light flywheel helps. just one quick blip of the heel and the revs will be right up where you need them.
