Ha ha Dave you dog, nicely played. Made me laugh for sure, you remind me of a book I read called Mosquito Coast. This guy was missing half his index finger and was always jabbing people with it or wagging it in their faces, he loved to make people uncomfortable with reality. Lol your him.

Hey I'm not a Jerk driver, there are times when I use both feet, power braking, boosting, autocrossing, but then I'm a tard. LOL yup I am I am.

 

All I can think of is all the people that can't drive in the first place that would ride the brake all the time.

I used to play racing games when I was younger and would use my left foot on the brake pedal. The very first time I got in a car for drivers ed I naturally went with my left foot and was immediately told I needed to use my right foot so that's what I've used since.

Honestly, unless you're riding the brake pedal with your left foot, I see it being basically the same amount of time to bring your left foot up from the floor to the brake pedal as bringing your right foot off the accelerator (or off the floor when using cruise control). For the most part, if you pay attention to what traffic is doing, that .75 seconds isn't really going to be a huge issue.

 

nope.... never brake with the left foot since I started to drive automatics - Dont like automatics either

 

 

[QUOTE=BeachBumMike;656225][CENTER]Thanks everyone for your posts & Votes.

Found a Video that I think was made by a former MCF Member.
I heard that he sold his Monte & got a Ford & also
opened `up a >All you can eat restaurant
p.s. I also think he has a happy foot fetish >(LOL)<

Ha, nice video, interesting topic here BeachBumMike a I never really gave it to much thought as to people not EVER left foot braking. Watched 3 of the videos and all the pro's do left foot braking, so cool. As I mentioned I do it while autocrossing and it worked, took 1st place novice class many years back.

 

Thanks Mr Zippy `Greg,
I think it's great for auto cross and many racing applications, but I left foot brake in heavy stop & go traffic or beach driving..

* I remember Space showing me a picture of your feet from one of your Mountain climb + adventures. I've always wanted to mountain climb...There's sure no mountains in Florida
You can get up high in florida, but you got to take bad drugs
I'd rather do it the natural way & get High on Life....I seem to get in trouble when I get around those that smoke or burn weeds that they found or grew

Thanks for your post & input....It has to be a Blast to autocross your Monte & have the turbo kicking in (WoW)....

 

I brake with my left foot. Feels weird just leaving my left foot sitting there when I'm not driving a manual (which I can't really do anymore anyway).

Think about it this way, why would they extend the pad for the brake pedal on automatics to cover close to where the clutch would be if it wasn't meant for the left foot?

 

Hi Sgt Major `Drew,
Thanks for your post & Vote.

Are you right handed or left handed ?

I wonder if there is a correlation between the hands and feet ?

Are you Left Footed ? or Right Footed ?

Or are you ambidextrous

 

I'm ambidextrous. But I tend to do most things left handed.

 

Not all drugs are bad as the general population is finally coming to grips with, after all the years of govt. propaganda, 10's of thousands of lives disrupted, families broken over jail time for pot. What a travesty, it's all been a pack of lies so Big Pharma can sell their meds with all the horrendous side effects (may cause nausea, sleeplessness, suicidal thoughts, internal bleeding, death) etc. and they are still legal, lol, omg.

Now I'm not smoking pot and have not since like about 94, but used to smoke it everyday in the Army and for years after. Glad the witch hunt is about over for the current smokers.

My feet took a beating a few time out there, especially the Cont. divide trip, ugh. Have not been on any extensive hikes now for a couple years. Do the local thing more lately. Took my five year old granddaughter out last week for probably a 3 miler. I love it out there away from the city. And it's pick em up and put em down 30,000 times, left right left...
