Description: WRC, Baja 500, Dakar, Gravel Sprints, Hill Climbs, it doesn't matter what you're driving or at what level you're at, there are fundamental skills you need to know in order to not just get podium results, but potentially even just finish.

Texas Dave of the Rally Ready Driving School gives us an introduction to left foot braking and why it is critical to your rallying success due to the nature of the sport for not just stopping your vehicle but also ensuring it is positioned correctly before and during cornering.

In this first lesson of four at the Rally Ranch, we will apply the left foot braking technique to some straight-line braking exercises in order to start to train our brain on where to position our left foot and also how to modulate it more than the simple 'up or down' usage it tends to see on the clutch pedal.

As well as this technique you will learn how to start thinking more about your hand position on the wheel while cornering which is very different from normal street or circuit driving and just like straight-line braking it is something best started in a low-speed situation.

It doesn't matter if you're in a UTV, rallycross, rally sprint, hill climb car, off-roader, FWD, AWD, RWD or your mums Honda Odyssey, these techniques will apply.
