If you're going to cite SCCA experience, left foot braking is totally an autocrosser technique, especially in a FWD car. I have ProSolo medals to prove that it works. I've won events in both a GS ITR and and a CP Miata braking with my left foot.

The citation of SCCA and off-road drift experience was to explain where one would apply toe and heel appropriately. I also used that to explain that while I can perform the maneuver, and I would drive in ice storms and snow on bald tires in the Z, left foot braking in traffic still scares the crap out of me. Side story: I've never used an AT for solo courses, and the only FWD I used was at the drags and it was a MT as well. I'm not knocking left-foot braking as a racing technique. I'm knocking it as a technique for drivers just beginning and for some experienced road drivers who would panic in an emergency situation. Congrats on your wins! ![]()
