Can you do heel-and-toe???

yeah, although its more of half my right foot on the brake and rolling the other half onto the throttle.
I remember growing up my dad would explain it all the time - on every fun ride we would take in one of the toys. It always seemed so easy when he would do it. When I started driving at 14 with him, I would practice and practice but never get the timing quite right. Then, one day it happened and I remember that day perfectly. I was 16, had a girl friend over, and wanted to take her for a ride in on of our 993's. So, we set out on some back roads by our house where I grew up learning how to drive. On a a 90 degree corner that I could do in my sleep, it happened - I braked deep, executed heal-toe downshift to perfection, hit the apex, got slight oversteer and exited beautifully. I will never forget that day!

I am sorry for sidetracking, but would you mind posting a couple of pics of your CS?

yes everyday. 10.5 isnt that big.
Can you do it on the original boxster pedals??? I wear size 10.5-11 shoes so I guess my feet is a bit big. I'm having a hard time hitting the gas pedal on the heel and I don't have enough room to roll my feet either.
I'm always annoyed how these little japanese people can do it to flawlessly.

PS: I can do double-clutch downshift no problem... like this guy in the video.
