I can't drive in shoes at all. Flip flops or bust. I can do double-clutch rev-matched downshifts all day long in flip-flops, but can't even make a 1-2 shift smoothly in shoes. Rainbows>Newbalance

It is either barefoot or shoes, no flippers, they have no traction and tend to slip off the clutch as I drive

I love to drive in flip flops, last time I was at the track they saw me in my flip flops and I forgot to bring a pair of sneakers and they kicked me off the track.

i drive in combat boots, i dont know how the hell yall can drive barefoot, it just feels weird hitting the pedals. Not to mention when its really cold and your foot is on that cold steel.

I ALWAYS drive barefoot. If I wear shoes that day, I dont fully put them on until I get to my destination. I cannot drive as smooth and sometimes I end of hitting the brake and gas pedal at the same time with some of my wider shoes.

I can see driving could be a problem if you have a really stiff clutch, buts mine's a stock honda clutch.
