I raced dirt track cars and with modifies and late models you have to lfb to keep the car set up, up on the bars, we call it. My track car had an automatic and I started right foot. Made myself go to lfb and it is faster for me.

Just got my first SIM this weekend.  Immediately tried LFB.  Seemed to get the hang of it pretty quickly.  Went for a errand run to pickup something for my wife and tried LFB in the real world.  Almost broke my nose on the steering wheel!

Lol. The G force differences are real! I can do it IRL if I think about it, but now that I have a manual rather than a DCT I'm not seeing the benefit as much.

If I try this, what is the game plan for a left foot brake induced spin? The advice is usually "in a spin, two feet in".  Not sure not would work smoothly enough in the moment. 

Gotta go three feet in at that point. 

 

Actually same rules still apply apply—two feet in. It can take some practice, but think how clumsy your feet wrestle when you were first learning to heel-and-toe. Work on getting reps in a safe, controlled environment, just like learning any new skill.

In that case you would cross your right foot over the left to push in the clutch.wink

I had a vascular surgeon(who was a really good driver) tell me to switch the hand I use for eating with a fork. Most people hold it in their right hand. Switch to the left hand and your brain will start to adapt to do fine motor skills with the right side of the brain. You might stab yourself in the face a few times, so be careful. He also pointed out the bigger the muscle, the dumber it is. Use the muscles in your lower leg, not just your thigh muscle.
