just so you know it's harder to heel toe on drive by wires, but the main advantage of heel toe is that you slowed down your car to entry of a corner while you rev up to match the downshift and keep your car at higher rpm to keep the torque and power. and higher rpm usually means more traction. so you basically used 0 engine breaking. because engine breaking you loose speed...

so basically you are coming into a turn, then you break to keep your car's nose down a little, at the same time you rev and downshift entering the turn, by then the time you enter you are at the proper gear and speed, usually 1-2 gears down. and midway into a turn all you have to do is finish the turn by fully gas...and what's the different from engine breaking and gas? you don't kill your clutch with heel toe, and it's faster.
