Left foot braker for Arcade racing games because that's a rally driver's footwork

However my days driving around the joint I'm a right foot braker due to the right, trying to get use to a bit of heel-toe too, doing hilarious time attacks from home to McDonalds LMAO!~

i always use my left foot for braking, i have pretty big feet so if i used my right i'd press the break and accelerator and knock my left foot about too and get all disoriented lol

Ok, just by looking at this I can tell you don't know to play properly or you haven't seen real speed yet.

Your arcade must be full of slow people then, probably guys that just keep trying to take the crown in ghost battle...

i say let people do as they please as long as they aren't total noobs or dont have a clue as to what they are doing

since i m a fairly tall guy i find it hard for me to do left foot breaking since my leg wud hit the wheel

I am a left foot braker, but on Hakone i use heel/toe method. I dont know why it just feels more natural to me.

left foot braking because most of the time i dont let go of the gas while i brake and besides, thats my style of playing

no wonder your rims keep spinning everytime you stops...
Doesn't the car slides a lot when you did it (brake+gas)?? Especially the Fairlady Z33

hahaha i love ur slogan

@Kenji

haha nice one

hmm actually i feel that the car is a lot more in control while doing it. releasing the gas makes the car grip the road and slows it at the same time. that is why i let is slide

@FAME*

who's slogan? mine?

Oh cool...
I'll try it... XP

@Kenji

its not hard because you dont have to mind the gas anymore, just control the steering wheel and brakes.

update me on what will be you're reaction after you tried it

I think break or no break also depends on the line you travel through the corners
you also have to consider your HP to determine how much u break

I don't think anyone can go 820HP on Hanshin without breaking

I tried to not break, but that takes a lot of techniques especially controlling the accelerator, try not to break on C1in with 740HP, just tap on the accel on the corners...it gets hard with some of the zigzag turns...

@RIT_ninja

you have a point. as long as its the fastest way to turn, go for it

Quite hard actually, since most of the time I'm a right footer...
and my legs are long... -.-

@Kenji

oh you tried it already? how did it go?

The damn pedals are so small.. my feet are size 11. I HAVE to left foot brake, even though I dont for other games.

ermmmm i sometimes use left foot but sometimes use right foot. no option for that?

@maxidrifter001 : That is wat i personally feel

works in osaka!!!!!

Still can't control the amount of "slide" the car generates... >.<

Same here.

I'm improving. I'm using all of my techniques I used in the past and using them to create another technique that helps me getting closer to Lazy_Drifter.

well for me i use the left foot braking. been using it since daytona/sega rally days. but in real life if i'm driving at i'll be using left foot, if mt right foot.

p/s: u dont really need to use brake in sega rally

games = left
RL = right
but i do brake on bg4 with right foot...left feels funny
