Whilst talking to a friend the subject of left foot braking came up. I can't see any benefit from this at all especially if you can heel and toe but my friend insists it is a vital track day skill.
It doesn't really help if you need to change down which you probably will if you are braking hard but the arguement is that the power can be reapplied more quickly.
As an aside has anyone actually tried braking with their left foot? BE CAREFUL AS YOU WILL PROBABLY COME TO A CRUSHING STOP as the left foot does not have the same feel and control as the right one.
