The "heel & toe" name is, in many cases somewhat of a misnomer. In my experience, which admittedly, isn't as extensive as many of the contributors on here, it is the ball of the right foot on the brake and the side of the foot blipping the throttle. If you look an most driver shoes, they have a reinforced area on the outside of the right shoe for this purpose and it is nowhere near the heel. I suspect you would need a swivel joint in your knee in order to actually use your heel.

This should be ones first thought,but many years ago we did this very thing.Yup,as crazy as it sounds we did it a lot,and got away with it.We did not terrorize any one,our intention was purely for our enjoyment.A lot of our street racing was spur of the moment,meeting an opponent and needing to prove a point.No way would that work today with so much more traffic and the horrible state our roads are in.
