Heel Toe Driving Technique
The heel toe technique is an essential part of racing. See this demonstration on how it's performed. You see that all the actions take place simoultaneously, all in the blink of an eye- thinking about what to do isn't an option.





First time driving a manual car.
Friend of mine is trying to drive a manual car for the first time. In a Eclipse GTS of all cars. Watch as he fails at it!





Heel-toe shifting technique
My attempt at demonstrating heel-toe downshifting technique. This is a single-clutch technique. Double-clutching can also be useful. Some day I'll get around to making a video demonstrating that. :)

How to drive a manual (basics)
*NOTE: The "no-gas method" is NOT intended to be used in everyday driving. It is simply to determine (indicate) the friction or the catch point of your clutch. You MUST apply gas as you release the clutch to accelerate otherwise, you WILL stall! Hope this clears everything up. =) * A lot of my friends don't know how to drive a manual transmission so I decided to make a video. And I use the word "basically" way too much. =P





Porsche 918 Spyder - On The Road
BrianZuk records the incredible all-new Porsche 918 Spyder. This is the only one in the world at this time. The video begins with the cover being stripped off the 918, then the 918 starts up and drives to the front of the Lodge at Pebble Beach for the Concours. The video then shows all angles of the 918, both the exterior and interior. And finally, the video concludes with the 918 driving off in all-electric mode into a trailer. Incredible car, enjoy this rare footage... BrianZuk's Facebook Here! http://www.facebook.com/pages/BrianZuk/150184461660159





Automatic vs Semi-Automatic vs Manual - Part II
Background MANUAL. Manual transmissions were the first and most common type of transmission to be fitted in cars to benefit from different gear ratios between the respective propulsion of engine and drivetrain. They basically involve the activation by the driver of the clutch by a foot pedal, the positioning of gears by a gear stick, and the respective coordination of the fuel supply through a throttle pedal. Manual transmissions cost less to manufacture and their reparation in case of malfunction is less complex and costly than that of automated ones. As compared with fully automated devices, it also allows for a potential greater fuel efficiency (albeit not necessarily) as the driver can judge what especial conditions of driving allow for taller ratios and lower supply of fuel. The risk of engine breakdown due to over-revving has additionally been significantly reduced through the fitting of electronic rev-limiters. More significantly, however, the greater advantage of manuals lies in the substantially different driving experience. Automobiles with manual gearboxes situate the driver in command of all the important functions of the vehicle, such as gear selection, amount and duration of clutch activation, fuel supply, all of whose related combinations allow for an infinite range of subtle variations of the dynamics of the machine. Automobile enthusiasts, that is, individuals related to vehicles seeking the sensorial experience of driving for its own sake rather than as a means of transport or of merely attempting to move measurably faster, tend to value all the mechanical operations implied by active driving rather than seeking promised marginal gains in speed by the delegation of functions to the vehicle's automated systems. The experience of directly controlling and operating the main variables and functions of the vehicle and for the driver to be organically integrated with the whole of the machine is believed to be of greatest appeal to car enthusiasts.
