I am so used to stomping on the kick pedal (It won't break, anyway because it has been mended together where it broke before, and metal has been screwed on the part where it snapped)....But it is kinda hard to hit many kick pedal notes coming at one time..I wanna get everybody's opinion on what the best way to hit a lot of upcoming kick pedal notes would be..If I try to hit the kick pedal softly by just pressing my foot down, I will mess up, because I have tried it many times..

What kind of "lots o Bass" are we talking? 25 or 6 to 4's kind of constant bass for 5 minutes, Inside the Fire's super fast constant kicks, or Embedded's short fast bursts.

I doubt you learned to play on expert by "trying many times". To master such thing you gotta try harder, and actually learn it. There's no magic to it. You could master heel-toe for efficient double kicks, you could learn to control your kicks at higher speeds, or you could get used to smashing it down. But you just gotta practice.

Between Inside The Fire's super fast constant kicks and Embedded's short fast bursts, I don't know...

Is there any song specifically that you're trying for as that would help, also are you playing heel up or heel down?

I honestly just recommend practicing at slower speeds first until you get consistent at that speed. Then up it until you get consistent at that speed. So on so forth. My speed with just one pedal has gone up tremendously by doing that.
