I watched the video of the Porsche running at Sebring that was recently posted here. I have heard of this heel-toe technique that people use when racing (or just driving to the limit). In the video, I saw the driver doing something like this while he was downshifting. What is the purpose, when is it used, and how exactly is it performed?
