it's just the technique of blipping the throttle to match revs when downshifting while braking. Saves stress on drive train and smooths the downshift, keeps the car balanced by not transferring the car's weight around.
I keep my heel planted at its usual spot near the base of the throttle and use the ball of my foot to brake. When I need to blip the thorttle I roll the outside edge of my right foot onto the throttle pedal to match the revs(keeping brake pressure).
Left foot of course operates the clutch.
Some guys have variants of this but its essentially the same idea.
It's actually easier to do at higher speeds and revs than when you're just trolling along.
The track guys on this forum can probably add to this but basically that's it.
