ChatGPT: Heel and Toe in Racing

HEEL and TOE

(Manual Transmission) throttling, braking, clutching, with focus on Managing "Multiple" Targeted RPM in the Heel and Toe Process, thus Targeted Speed in Initiation Entrance Speed of Corner as part of Whole "Speeds" in Cornering Movement

Step	Driver Action	Throttle	Brake	Clutch	Gear	Vehicle Speed	Engine RPM	Heel-and-Toe
1	Throttle release	⬆ Off	—	⬆ Engaged	In gear	Constant → ↓	RPM follows speed	No
2	Begin braking	Off	⬇ Applied	Engaged	In gear	↓ Decreasing	RPM decreases	No
3	Clutch pressed	Off	Applied	⬇ Disengaged	In gear	↓ Decreasing	Drops to idle	No
4	Neutral selected	Off	Applied	Disengaged	Neutral	↓ Decreasing	Idle RPM	No
5	Lower gear selected	Off	Applied	Disengaged	Lower gear	↓ Decreasing	Idle RPM	No
6	Throttle blip	⬇ Blip	Applied	Disengaged	Lower gear	↓ Decreasing	RPM rises	YES
7	Clutch released	Off	Applied	⬆ Engaged	Lower gear	↓ Decreasing	RPM matched	Completed
8	Corner entry	Partial / off	Modulated	Engaged	Lower gear	Low & stable	Stable RPM	No

Key rule:
RPM follows vehicle speed only when the clutch is engaged. Heel-and-toe is performed while braking, clutch disengaged, and before clutch release to prevent drivetrain shock and maintain stability.
