Squale iii Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Betcha he downshifts because "compression braking extends brake pad life"... I had an arguement with my fiancee about this. She was "taught" to slow down this way... I'm like what's more expensive...$25 brake pads...or a $1000+ transmission? lol. Now when I'm fooling around I'll downshift before making turns..but I heel/toe and blip the throttle before I downshift and rev match it.
