2. Heel-and-toe shifting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heel-and-toe_shifting

   This technique ensures that maximum power can be reached the instant the brake pedal is released and the accelerator fully depressed. Rowing is the technique of downshifting more than one gear along with the heel-and-toe technique to provide engine braking and smoother deceleration/braking while in the intermediate gears.

3. Dead pedal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_pedal

   The dead pedal was developed to prevent the accidental actuation of the clutch or brake, also known as left-foot braking, by providing an alternative surface to rest the foot on. The dead pedal became more important with time as stronger and faster cars were developed because the left foot must push against the floor to brace the driver's body.

4. Clutch control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clutch_control

   Clutch control refers to the act of controlling the speed of a vehicle with a manual transmission by partially engaging the clutch plate, using the clutch pedal instead of (or in conjunction with) the accelerator pedal. The purpose of a clutch is in part to allow such control; in particular, a clutch provides transfer of torque between shafts ...

5. Non-synchronous transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-synchronous_transmission

   The clutch brake not only slows or stops the idle gear axis but can also prevent shifting into gear until the clutch pedal is released a few centimetres (or inches) off the floor. In order to shift into gear, the clutch must be halfway off the floor, otherwise, the clutch brake will prevent the transmission from being shifted into or out of gear.

   This is a list of auto parts, which are manufactured components of automobiles.This list reflects both fossil-fueled cars (using internal combustion engines) and electric vehicles; the list is not exhaustive.

7. Left-foot braking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-foot_braking

   Left-foot braking is the technique of using the left foot to operate the brake pedal in an automobile, leaving the right foot dedicated to the throttle pedal. [1] It contrasts with the practice of using the left foot to operate the clutch pedal, leaving the right foot to share the duties of controlling both brake and gas pedals.
