@@Pedro_opc really depends on your pedal placement, i find it rather hard in my Ford focus 2011. Brake pedal is too high and far away from the gas pedal. In a mx5 of is zo easy because of proper pedal placement.
Unfortunately, that’s not the intake sound. The growl is the exhaust, and the whine is the transmission. Some people report having their transmission replaced in warranty because of that, while others are being told it’s normal. Hopefully it doesn’t lead to mechanical failures.
Great video! I have the same car, also a ND1, and I would like to learn to heel and toe. Thanks for showing ur feet position and movements, I will try to do it myself.
@@Jimmy_Wei doesnt handle way better. The low center of gravity with the boxer engine makes up for some of the weight difference and the brz are cheap to get especially second hand
Looks like a fun little ride, we are blessed to have Mazda because no one else wants to make a simple pure standard transmission na sports car for the masses anymore.
Find a long empty stretch of road and just practice accelerating and heel toe braking along the straight section. Not much to it other than just doing it. Important to remember to release the clutch after you blip the throttle though. I would often forget to do that while learning it.
It's no big deal. I think some enthusiasts make much more of it than is justified. I had just as much fun driving my ND1 without fussing with this nonsense.
Good posture and technique - great fun! I see the "powers that be" weren't keen on surrendering more than the minimum of countryside to build that road. Thanks for sharing...
I have to admit, I am an S2000 purist, but Sring a good driver on a beautiful road with my 2nd favorite roadster is quite a treat! I subscribed! Loving the footwork shot too
@@kojack635 Yes I do fit pretty snugly inside a Miata of any generation. I used to be a Valet driver and have driven many Miatas, even having worked events for my local Mazda dealership at times. The legroom is actually better than you'd think, however if most of your height is in your torso and not your legs like mine, I can see maybe the top of your head probably getting very close or touching the roof when it's up. For me I had about 2 inches before my head would hit the top. I doubt I'd ever be able to get in with a racing helmet though.
Wonderful driving! Out of interest, and perhaps lack of knowledge - I know that modern cars have syncro and double clutching is not really necessary....but owning a ND Miata, and hearing about some gearboxes have died, I am wondering if double cluching would benefit the gearbox i.e. cause less wear and shock to internals...? I am always double clutching, but not always very smoothly, and surely single clutch downshifting would allow better control of my rev-matching....anyone knows? Thx
Just practise it while driving at everyday slowish speeds first, slow engine speed so you dont get a nasty surprise by screwing it up. If you have to change down during normal driving while approaching a corner or even a junction, just try it. It's not hard it just takes practice. Heel and toe can definitely be used in everyday driving.
When you downshift, the engine is spinning at a higher rpm than the gearbox. We blip the throttle to “match” the rpms of the gearbox & the engine, which gives a much smoother downshift as opposed to a rather jerky one if you don’t do heal & toe
I mount mine on the top of the "wall" behind the seats, above the glove compartment. Using a curved (helmet mount I guess) default mount with 3M. In superwide I get this pov too, so I guess thats what he has done.
im looking to get a manual miata, never driven stick before.... i see hes blipping the throttle on downshifts, which in my head seems difficult.. is throttle blipping necessary for downshifting?
@@coltonniemann9811 Nah man. I respectfully disagree with Lockdown Guitar. The engine needs to rev higher whenever you downshift. That's what downshifting means. You can either slowly let go of the clutch and have it do the rev matching for you, in the process making the downshift slow and wearing your clutch out way more especially at high rpms, or you blip the throttle yourself so downshifts are smooth and quick. It's not just a racing technique. I blip the throttle on every single downshift I do with my lowly econobox VW Golf just daily driving the thing. I even heel-and-toe downshift everytime too. Lots of people daily driving manual cars do. Some manual drivers think this is just a racing technique and is optional otherwise. To me and a lot of people, it's just the proper way to drive a manual car. Everyone can learn how to do it, especially with a car like the Miata. Just takes practice.

no top, intake sound and a mountain road
an indescribable feeling

your heel & toe looks relaxed and 2nd natured i aspire for that amount of polish on my own technique.
Nice video. It appears he is effortlessly performing continuous heel & Toe downshifts. Love the camera angle. Thanks!!
I can now took me about 2 years to perfect it though mk1 driver here :) or N/a
This is one of the clearest videos I've seen demonstrating heel toe shifting. Nice job
Nice footwork, Kid! Good to see young people who know how to work machinery. ;)
You’re a really good driver
Great video! I have the same car, also a ND1, and I would like to learn to heel and toe. Thanks for showing ur feet position and movements, I will try to do it myself.
Thank you! I am glad that you like it 👍
Did you get it?

Nice foot-cam! The intake sound when you blip the throttle is just amazing. Is it 1.5L or 2.0L?
Thank you! It’s 2.0

I love just how a simple heel and toe camera (best motoring style) can stir up so much hate xD .Enjoyable video, even the correction at 1:07
Really nice footwork!
Wow nice driving. Your heel n toe is very smooth perfect. I love it this video.
I wish I could heal and to so easily, my legs are too long to get in a good position for it.
I have a similar problem! I have very long legs (I'm 6'4) and relatively small feet (8.5 us size) so it's very uncomfortable for me to even try.
@@alexc7864 I'm also 6'4". Can you fit in a miata?

Is this a stock ND miata?? if so they are definitely fast enough for a great time
It’s stock😄
This is exactly why I want an MX-5
beautiful clutch work my guy
gotta say this nice outfit dude
Nice foot work…I gained a better understanding of this practice…Thank you!
Nice drive Sir. Stock exhaust ? Sounds amazing for a 4 banger
Damn!!! such awesome downshiftings!!!
Amazing driving of my dream car. Great job bro
enjoy the life mate cheers from turkey
Need more vids like this 🙌🔥
NOOOOOO, I NEED A LONGER VERSION!
He makes heal and toe look easy
oh!!cheese gyudon.nice drive.
Any modifications done to the exhaust system? It sounded really good
Smooth heel and toe action. What size shoes do you wear?
Thank you! The shoesize is 40.
Very sweet to watch, thank you.
That was some nice driving
Nice driving!
Thank you!

Broke my gear box doing this every summer. Carefull, cheap and fragile
what year was the car manufactured? I believe the gen 1 2016 models had issues with the gearbox
Nicely done. What year is the Miata? My 2018 GT ceramic metallic with cherry 🍒 soft top only has 6418 miles on it. Best car I have ever had
I know these roads!
I like ur dunks
hi the video is really cool. I have a question I am new with cars. When downshifting why are you touching the accelerator a bit? Sounds so cool
japan is good car
Nice video! May I ask, what did you use to record this, camera and mount? I’m thinking of doing something similar with my RF
very cool video. I'm hoping to get a Miata for my next car.
is it a stock echaust please??
ah yes doraemon x initial D crossover
Great technique
An ineffable drive
What's a good and safe way to learn heel-toe? And between what gears?

So this is the guy that's behind me all the time...
Veey good use about pedals
lol u don't need to heel toe if you're gonna hold the brake after ,, it's for corners *maintaining revs
No
Huh, maybe I don't need a 1994 to have fun
Which intake? Sound nice
There’s moving feet in your passenger seat sir
I can rev match but hard for me to heel and toe. Everytime I try I end up slamming the brake instead.
Great video and downshifts, what camera you use?
Thank you! Gopro 4.
Why does the heel & toe style excists?

Yes😜
What phone holder do you have?
try to break more with the rpm of the Engine before u use the Breaks
