I'd work on perfecting one thing at a time. In normal street driving, there really is no need for heel/toe. The whole idea of the latter is to downshift while braking so as not to upset the suspension as you're nearing or entering a corner.

I blip the throttle every time i downshift but cannot heel toe in the G. I tried but im sure racing shoes make a big difference too with being able to move your foot around over my big clunky shoes

why heel toe when you can just do this.
