Re: Left Foot braking??

Left foot braking is a great technique that helps control wheel speed and torque. For troughs of us that use a Manual Tranny we have to control the gas and brake with the right foot and the clutch with the left foot. Its hard to do at first but once you get it down you'll be much smoother and confident in what you can do. This technique is best used when rock crawling and when going up steep hills.

That said the auto is 10x easier to wheel in but I still take my MT everywhere the autos go.
