Normally when you change gears you

Let off the gas
Clutch Pedal In
Change gear
Clutch Pedal out
Press the Gas


With Flat foot shifting

wide-open-throttle
Clutch-in
Change Gear
Clutch out

Normally when you do this the car will bang the rev limiter but with RaceRom Flat Foot Shifting a secondary rev limiter is activated, fuel enrichment is added, and ignition timing is retarded

Its faster or meant for aggressive driving

Warning! Flat foot shifting is not applicable to those flat footed drivers...
