afaik left foot braking began to be super important in wrc when

its so you can decellerate the car momentarily to get more weight over the front wheels to reduce understeer and quickly get back on the power

it offers some benefits:
>weight over front wheels when it understeers in midengined car (can't let go of throttle or muh snep)
>being able to shave some tenths of seconds of each corner by not having to transfer pedals
It's about as useful to know as rev matching.

Because the clutch could be operated by a squeeze handle on the sequential shifter.

was also used in the IMSA GTO quattro to keep the turbo spinning while entering a corner

Came here to say this. Cuts down on lag for exit acceleration

Did a rally school for a day. LFB is all about weight transfer, we specifically used it on corner entry to steer the car. When combined with throttle lift off, it makes those front tires really bite into the ground and effects a quick change of direction. If you simply turn the wheel at high speed on loose surfaces you will just understeer.

Also, I guess the point of using the left foot is that you can get back on throttle instantly to maintain your line.

that makes sense, haven't tried this one. I tried to use left foot mid-corner and i was just getting all understeer-y, i'll try to use it in a way you described soon.

Ya. Also something to note, when rallying you're constantly sliding, so if we used LFB midcorner, it would help steer the car for reasons already mentioned, because all 4 wheels were sliding. If you do it while you're still under the limits of grip, you'll probably just get more understeer because you'll overwhelm the fronts before the rears lose traction. Most of the braking load is on the fronts anyways. The first technique I described is related to trail braking, and that definitely has tarmac/real world application.

FYI
Many Police departments (California highway patrol is one) teach lfb even when they drove nothing but rwd crown vics and fox body's.
Its more than just controlling an awd. Its superior for controlling every layout.

I think it's pretty clear at least one of these pedals needs to be penis operated

so, ABS is basically vibration system for your middle-pedal-operating organ?
