I dont heel toe at all during daily driving, its kinda pointless. When downshifting, ya kinda gotta have a feel how high you need to rev before the downshift, the throttle lags a bit, so sometimes I have to blip it twice to match revs. I find that heel toeing in our cars is kinda difficult because the throttle pedal is so damn huge and the brake sits a bit higher, I can do it, but its not smooth at all.

My drag technique is pretty much the norm I suppose, the ass end brakes loose pretty easy so dropping the clutch is a no no unless you wanna spin in the pit through 2nd. Clutch is best feathered at around 2-2.5k, once you grip, mash pedal, kick clutch and shift simultaneously at 7-7.5k and just bang the gears from there.
