YES. IVE BEEN SAYING THIS SINCE FOREVER. Left foot braking is so important for maintaining grip yet and not experiencing snap oversteer. Edit: The key, the purpose, of left foot braking is to still be on throttle while under braking. I’ve had my personal experiences with village idiots on the canyon who legit let off throttle going through a corner expecting to just magically grip through it. Insane.

The point about applying brakes and throttle in a low grip/ice scenario is really important for normal driving. I live in the PNW, and had to drive my sisters old FWD Sonata through a notorious mountain pass in the aftermath of a snow storm. Even with studded tires, the open front dif was not liking it, and so turning off TCS and ABS while almost riding the brakes made it feel like a breeze. Modern TCS actually apply the brakes to redirect power in an open-dif too, but it's a reactive computerized process and can't hold up to just learning how to do it yourself (or you could just get an LSD and awd and call it a day, that's what I did lol)

FWD is so much fun! I used to race a 1st gen Kia Rio. Rally, rallycross, autocross and ice racing. Was a blast! The Europeans have known these tricks for a long time.

lol how does this video have below 1k views, bro deserves more

Idk why, but plain Jane beater cars will always hold the highest spot of value in my heart. I love a good, durable, tried and true vehicle that has withstood the test of time. Great video!

The algorithem is blowing this one up, And for good reason Amazing video

This is what a modern Takumi would look and sound like

this channel is a hidden gem im so glad you came up on my recommended! This is such a big vibe

great video man!!! i think for future videos you should also have a driver POV cam so we can see how you’re steering and when you’re shifting while driving, it would really give a better perspective on when to brake and throttle and shift.

I've been using LFB as my daily braking technique for close to a decade in my Prius. I first learned about it from the Shingo episodes from Initial D. But I decided to adopt the technique after reading about it in the "Speed Secrets" book. The secret is that it is simply faster than RFB, and it is why cart drivers keep their LFB techniques to open wheel race cars as they move up the racing ranks. It took me a few months to get used to LFB. I would compare it to re-learning to drive once again. It takes a while for a new driver to learn to modulate the gas and brake pedals with the right foot without stabbing hard or not pressing hard enough, and the same is true for LFB. But once you develop that left foot sensitivity and muscle control, the world is your oyster.

Rally CRX is wild.

Have a FWD Renault Zoe EV that I always use left-foot braking in. So much fun to drive on curvy B-roads.

Never thought id hear the black keys and suicideboys together in a video 🔥🔥 Great content!!

u r goated bro the vibe is immaculate

Little bit of humor, simple short explanation with various angles showing what's happening, using obtainable gear/entry shitbox. (I love CRX tho and they're creeping up in prices, but a rusty one is still cheap) And the location is also very common wherever you may live. No rare togue canyon drive, no track. Showing that indeed everyone that really wants to, can learn this. You don't need a special car or track nearby. And you don't need special talents perse. Definitely subscribed.

This is the best technique in general when it comes to sports driving or racing a front wheel drive car. Especially ones with highly tuned engines and large turbo engines that produce peak power in the mid to upper RPM range. Besides being able to control the car when it slides, it also reduces understeer. Drivers back in Group A in the early 80's developed the technique. I used it back when I owned and raced an SRT-4. My Autocross times improved significantly in using left foot braking.

Sick video! Great tutorial and a good vibe. I love my 89 Corolla and thrash it like this too

Great job man! Could you please keep the footcam for future driving videos please? :)

You're so lucky to own a CRX.....I respect it's power to weight and contribution to the development of My EJ1( double wishbone suspension)

That would help me a lot to drift my rusty Peugeot 306. Your content is really great dude, hold on and you will form a cool youtube community

great video and energy

pretty sick looking crx👌

5:10 you can get the rear wheels to lock up if you don’t have abs and powering over the front wheels with the throttle that way only the rears lock, and I find its actully a lot easier to control a fwd slide that way rather than murdering the E

that one guy in initial d that drive Honda with his hand taped on steering I bet he is taking note intensively rn😂

Great video. always thought the arguments for right foot braking were silly, it makes it near impossible to drift in an auto

Great video brother

1:25 ah the shit eating grin while revving a loud ass Honda, I’ve never related to anything more in my life

This channel only has 2k subs at the time of this posting. I have a feeling there gonna get alot more. Great video.

Love the crx however I will say that sliding the rear end is significantly easier in the crx in general. Alot of other civics have more weight in the rear and linger wheel bases. The crx being short and one of the lightest civics makes this super easy!

Having a spot like that to rip around looks like a blast! Solid video and driving all around, and bonus points because you reminded me of Trevor from Whitest Kids U Know lol

i'm buying a 98 clio tomorrow and this appears in my feed. i guess i'll have to give it a try

You got a sub for this shit, also for making me think my Spotify started playing at the start

This is how I slide my Chevy sonic during the winter when I’m delivering pizzas, so much fun dude

That was a baller $B transition

It’s crazy that you don’t get teached that in driving school, the reaction time saves lives

Indistrial strength handbreak will help as well from the sheer amount of time you will be ripping that shit up when throwing it out. Throttle control is imperitive on fwd and so is accurate traction. Ie tires matter alot and when to power out of slide and when to hold or slow down are the difference between dangerous unmoving understeer, uncontrolled oversteer and nailing a slide

my friends are so dumb for thinking left foot braking is stupid

I love this video

Masterpiece

Man You remind me of Mudrock from Gorillaz :D And this is great video! Left foot braking made so much corners a child's play for me when I learned it!

I’m not a drifter by any means but I did drift the shit out of a Honda accord one time that shit was a blast and slid surprisingly well for a fwd

Wonderful love the vid

I somehow ended up moving towards left foot braking naturally when first learning to drive. I think it might have something to do with the fact that on a game controller the brake is always on the left trigger, so my brain already associated braking with the left side of my body. Either that or teenage me just wanted to be quirky and unique.

Cool vid

+1 sub :D Great content, wonder why u only got few hundred...

That was awesome

the only other soul ive heard play awkward car drive

Bro looks cool af

Finally 16, and our family wagon is FWD. You know what this means!

this is sweet man, im trying to get better at driving my car and this is helpign :)) by the way are you in souther nevada?

Im learning to drive and Ive already been just naturally doing this lol. Didnt even know it was some fancy technique and noone ever said anything about it lol

Nice!

Been listening to $uicideboy$ for over 8 years now so im subbing just for that and also because honda lol, i have a 02 dc5 but its lowered and doesnt get rallyed on dirt because it cant even drive on dirt roads without the exhaust scraping a little, but i beat the absolute shit out of my 97 pathfinder on dirt roads and in the snow and everything hitting jumps and my ass floats from the seat for seconds at a time and seeing my toolbox come up in the air and slam back down on the floor its literally the best thing ever😂, I also live in PNW so I can turn basically anywhere off the highway where I live and start rallying down a random dirt road my poor car only gets to drive at most 4 to sometimes 5 months of the year.

nice vid

I just remembered Oliver Amon, who used to drift Suzuki Swifts, which were of course FWDs

When I was first learning to drive I naturally did this albeit in an automatic. Even what 8 years later I still drove this way and I think (it’s a theory) by being able to do this, I can drift my ram 1500 effortlessly this way lol

You got the style. Make more action content 😎

sick outrooo

my dad has a mk1 honda crx they're a bit more powerful even though they have a couple less hp but i like ur mk2 man

Dude is teaching me how to drive like my grandma

heard awkward car drive and thought my music started playing over youtube 😭💀

We got the same seats which means we from the same streets 🔥

Wait... do people not use their left for for breaking usually?

So u push the gas to get the front wheels moving while the back ones are locked up cuz of the brake?

Big up for the $B in the intro ! :D

How do you keep your foot above the brake without getting tired thoo. Everytime i try doing it my foot gets really tired oof

Walt jr. kinda instructional video lol. Fr tho, great vid:):)

Aghhh yes great tips for those that need to drive 30m to the shop 😅

Can u do this in an automatic ?

song is awkward car drive by $uicideboy$ fyi

Missing my first car now 98 integra 😭

I've never heard that left foot breaking was bad till this video left foot breaking is rally technique

hmm I know the left foot braking and i am using it nearly daily bc of all the ice and snow it is really handy in my fwd nissan nx100. But i just cant make the rear end slide that much without the scandinavian flick. so how do yo do it that your end slides thath much?

Bro just started the car w out the clutch

in a race car you should never be right foot braking unless youre doing a heel toe downshift.

Bro I haven’t seen a vape like yours since before Covid

You took so many screenshots by using both feet on the pedals

2:02 RIP THROW OUT BEARING

When he was reving after he started it i thought he was grinding gears lmaoooo

i don't quite agree with the idea of "you can just shift when you gotta shift". most surprising situations on the street are not emergencies, but just smth like 'some idiot pulled out and now you gotta brake a bit' or so. if you now brake with your left foot you can not slow down and downshift at the same time, cause you need leftfoot-clutch for heeltoe. so you end up in a way too wrong gear not able to accelerate nicely once things roll again. don't get me wrong, leftfoot braking is cool. but if you wanna keep it real, keep it to the arguments that actually work, like going through a slidey corner where no downshift is needed, only applying the brakes for weight transfer

I’m left handed so left foot braking has just always been natural for me

What happened to toes on the break, heel on the gas?

i fucking love germ

I’m gonna try it, but not sure why you’d wanna lock up the brakes in an emergency, also abs won’t work if the engine stalls so I would care a little bit

B series?

matt watson from supermega???

me do be subscribing

Ur buddy whipped that thing he deserves that car now

How the f**** does this show up in my feed after I watch Initial d for the first time and have never searched for this content

What seats do you have

Only issue I got with left foot is no space between clutch and break with big feet lol

$uicideboy$ got you the like

I wonder how many people will absolutely total their car after watching this video when snow hits. :)

1:30 This is mainly said because most people are bad at LFB, and they drag the brakes. This causes uneeded excessive wear. Otherwise agreed 🏎️

Lol I'll give it ago in my 2006 mazda 6 wagon

Can you do this in car with aby?

oh yeah, we finna WHIP the 17 Civvy

shit what is that song in the beginning I know its $b and germ but cant remember someone remind me please

If you would have had examples are the beginning of the video I would have watched.

The title confuzed me i have a manny
