Since we've somewhat gotten onto this subject anyway, a h/t question, something I've never quite understood:
When you are braking and simultaneously 'blipping' the throttle, is the blip to
(1) rev match engine & transmission (ie you're doing it while the clutch is depressed and you are downshifting---after which you shift your right foot off the brake and back over to the accelerator to give it gas while letting the clutch out), or
(2) rev match the engine & wheels (ie you're doing it as you let the clutch out to accelerate, as in out of a turn)?
I'm guessin' it's (1), since the other suggests you're braking and trying to accelerate at the same time. But (acknowledging it'll wear your synchros faster) it's entirely possible to brake/clutch/down-shift all simultaneously without out blipping the throttle at all, until you start letting the clutch out. Is h/t primarily to save the transmission, or is it actually a faster way of negotiating a turn on a track?
