I'll admit that I am still a traditionalist and use my left foot exclusively for the clutch but I am sure that I'm giving up time on the track to the drivers who have mastered this technique. I've tried it once or twice on the street and it feels VERY awkward, but then so did heel-and-toe the first time that I tried that. Any input would be helpful.
... at the Autocross.
Since you're not shifting gears, it makes it easier to use your left foot to brake while leaving your right on the accelerator.
At the track I find very few turns where it is meaningful in saving time.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
