You dont even need to lift your left foot to brake = ="
Just roll your foot over to the pedal on its heel.
*BAM* Left foot braking

I need a clutch to go with the heel/toe method. It's not as easy without it because I use the clutch as a timer. While I may be a clutch raper, I still kick ass with it. Most people are like, 'lulwat r clutch?' Seriously, if you use a manual on MaxiTune, you had better have learned how to use a real one.

Ehh, I lose a lot of control when I tried that foot on gas+braking as compared to brake then step on the gas.

More control = more time for you to stabilize from drifting and accelerate

Right-foot braking= Noob
Left-foot braking= Semi-Pro

No-braking-just-letting-off-the-gas= Semi-Noob
No-braking-just-downshifting-and-drift= Pro
Hitting-the-wall-when-that-happens= Noob

Wall bounce technique= Semi-Pro

What's the difference between semi-noob and semi-pro?
BTW, i use left foot.

Time to renew my post.

(been a while...)

I rarely brake. No need to. Got all of my speed control on my shifter and gas pedal.

Sharp [red]corners? No need.

just wallride, find the right line and timing, gas-ungas, start swirving around to lose some speed or walltap are some other options opposed to braking, though imo there are times when you NEED to brake (such as when you wanna ram someone)

I use heel-to-toe for light and medium corners, and sometimes I lift up to slam on the brake for them hard corners smile.gif
