make sure you also master heel and toe with auto-rev off. you dont want to be too dependant on technology if you want to really learn how to drive.

By heel and toe you mean blipping the throttle right. With your toe on the brake and heel on the gas... Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it's tricky with the pivot style accelerator pedal.

This should be practiced somewhere safe by the way.

Just wanted to clarify because some people get the heel & toe technique confused with rev matching downshifts. No need to really heel toe unless your flying thru corners.
