Does anyone use this with the Octavia Vrs? I have tried but with the positon of the pedals i find in nigh on impossible. I am hoping to go on a HPC course and reading John Lyons Porche driving book he seems to insist on sustained revs on downshift and also advocates Heal and toeing. Maybe its my legs or something but i cannot get my heel anywhere near the accelerator without my thigh hitting the steering wheel... not good :eek: And unless i buy clown shoes i also struggle to raise the revs with the outside of my right foot whilst braking.

It's damn near impossible to heel and toe in a Drive By Wire Octy. As soon as you press the brake pedal the throttle pedal is 'disabled' and the revs drop, no matter how hard you press the loud pedal. Try it some time... press the brakes with your left foot whilst you have the throttle depressed and the revs drop.

This is strange, as I can definitely rev the engine with my foot on the brake in a kind of heel and toe fashion. Perhaps it doesn't work if you press the brake hard enough - which you probably will if you put your left foot on it. But I agree that heel and toe is difficult due to the position of the pedals. I can just about do it if I'm wearing really fat shoes, which enables me to clip the throttle just enough to keep the revs up. Not exactly textbook but it works for me!

Forget the brake just plant the sandshoe hard on the ye ha pedal !!!!!!!!!!111
