Downshift Blipping

[Jamieg285]

I've been reading this post with interest, as to my knowledge I've never blipped on downshifts.  I've given it a bit of a go and not got on with it, but I think that's a timing issue more than anything, and may be suiited to specific scenarios.  I've found in most cases I'm already braking when shifting down, so trying to brake and blip isn't easy.  I suspect it comes more into it's own when you are flowing at faster speeds and having braked are going down the gears ready for the next power blast.

What I did notice is that in some cases I've been holding a fixed throttle position when changing down.  This has the effect of a mild blip when you pull the clutch as it releases the load on the engine.
