May sound pretty silly but, I bought shoes specifically for HPDE and i struggled with heal toe downshifts wearing them...my wider soled shoes aren't a problem. I know the easy answer (and most likely the best) is wear a wider soled shoe. My OCD is making me question my technique...Typically my heal rest a little left of the gas pedal and I apply the brake with left 3rd of toes and roll my ankle to blip the throttle with widest portion of my foot, using the ball and my foot and the floor board as a fulcrum point. A narrower shoe prompts my to be more pigeon toed and rest my heal a more in front of the gas pedal.
Is this something to concern myself with or am I overthinking it? I know with my limited experience on track I have other things to improve on but, this surprised me.
