No, I don't understand that. The travel distance is usually longer for the left foot vs the right to the brake so how can that be physically possible? Also, it seems confusing for the brain and not intuitive. Finally, one can't ride the brake like one can 'ride' the gas, so unless one has the left foot near/over the brake, the right foot should always be able to get there faster.

I guess there may be 'some' benefit on a track when one anticipates a corner coming up to do whatever but otherwise it seems like it's just asking for trouble for all the reasons that I've stated in my previous post.
