Since you're all using two pedals now on the GT3. How many of you LF brake?

 

Not necessary in such a heavy car. I don't.

 

Sure it is Sam. They even do it in Nascar on road courses. I find it much smoother.

 

In all the 2 pedal cars I have owned, BMW M3 (e46, e92) have always been a left foot braker, just feels better to me. I am looking forward to the PCCBs with the left foot, my previous experience was in a manual and always had a hard time heel and toeing with them as the initial bite is much higher than with the steels. We shall see how the 991 GT3 is very soon.

 

News flash - it's not related to the pedals.
Plenty of people with three pedals left foot brake.

 

I know, but when someone only has two pedals it's an obvious method.

I've always LF braked in certain situations with a manual. Almost every Rally driver does.

 

Still many find it very hard to switch to the left foot when there is no clutch pedal. Even professional drivers had a hard time with the switch...rally drivers excluded

 

Left foot brake only - much better control and much better for me. Allan

 

Allan, have you gotten yours back yet

 

I would like some one to explain why you would need to left brake in the GT3.. I do not understand and, be assured, this is not a loaded question. This is the first time I have heard of this and I am trying to understand advantages/disadvantages.

 

No no I data gap when foot does from throttle to brake and vice versa.
Some overlap (limited possible in GT3) can keep the car planted a bit better
Someone cue Walter Rohrl left and right foot braking video please.

 

I have to say this guy is one of my heroes. Unbelievable skills!!!

 

That video never gets old

 

Walter is the true master of footwork. I never get tired of that video either.

 

If the vehicle I'm driving is two pedals, I'm left foot braking. I don't even think about it, it's just so natural. What's been challenging is trying to LFB in three pedal cars. I can do it in certain situations, but there is something about the distance my left foot has to travel on the three pedal car that makes it more unnatural for me. I guess it's just muscle memory from the wide brake pedal in all the two pedal cars. But I'm still working on it!
